My 7 year old daughter has yellow / mottled front upper teeth. What can be done?

I would look into a condition caused by excess flouride in drinking water, toothepaste, and dentist treatments, flouridosis. Flouride is often falsely promoted as beneficial for teeth. It is true that the flouride found naturally in tea, for instance, helps prevent infection in the teeth and strengthens the teeth, but sodium flouride is a byproduct of the aluminum and nuclear energy industries and is found in rat poison for a reason.....it is toxic. Good luck.

ask your dentist
Reply:A dentist would be a good place to start.
Reply:take her to your dentist.
Reply:Are these her baby teeth, or permanent ones? If baby teeth, they may be that way because of some lack of nutrient before she was born. If she is getting good nutrition now, her permanent teeth should be OK. In any case, she should see a dentist soon.
Reply:if they are her baby teeth not a lot they are about to fall out anyways.


if they are adult teeth take her to the dr. have them clean them and make sure she is brushing her teeth right.


when i was a kid i used to run the water and just act like i brushed them till mom got hip on it.I dont know why i hated clean so much when i was a kid
Reply:So did mine. She's now ten and it's virtually all gone. The dentist said it was a sign of strong, healthy teeth.
Reply:can be something as simple as staining, plaque, or decay or something as advanced like flourosis, death of the pulp(nerve), calcific metamorphosis, dentinogenesis imperfecta, amelogenesis imperfecta, or congenital erythropoietic porphyria





GO TO YOUR DENTIST
Reply:it depends - since she is only seven, there is no need to rush, because the front baby teeth are the ones that begin to fall out around that age, to make space for permanents. If they are permanent however, you may consider dental intervention (sometimes - not often- filing slightly with a burr by a dentist helps take off a bit of the uneven coloration) or simple whitening if that is not the case, yet again not at such young age
Reply:Wait until they fall out! She'll be losing those ugly little baby teeth in the next year or so. Don't put her through the pain of dental procedures that will only fall out with these teeth. I would have the dentist x-ray them to make sure that there is no decay seeping into the permanent teeth that are behind them. You could have them coated with a bonding agent if you are really into the vanity thing.
Reply:Knock them out and glue small white stones in her mouth that are teeth shaped
