Dental Fluorosis (white Spots on Teeth )

Dental fluorosis, also called mottling of tooth enamel, is a developmental disturbance of dental enamel caused by excessive exposure to high concentrations of fluoride during tooth development.

The risk of fluoride overexposure occurs at any age but it is higher at younger ages. In its mild forms (which are its most common), fluorosis often appears as unnoticeable, tiny white streaks or specks in the enamel of the tooth. In its most severe form, tooth appearance is marred by discoloration or brown markings.

The enamel may be pitted, rough and hard to clean.[1] The spots and stains left by fluorosis are permanent and may darken over time.

Re: Dental Fluorosis (white Spots on Teeth )

It seems to be genetic in my family. My mom has it, brother, sister, myself, and my son. We also didn't start having teeth come in until 1 1/2 years old.
