Guest guest Posted August 28, 2001 Report Share Posted August 28, 2001 Yes, I've wondered this. I feel like this is a real possibility with two of my sons, but not the ones with the biggest teeth problems. Also, with the eldest of these two, his adult teeth have been fine. Would kind of suggest the problem might be in vitro?

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2001 Report Share Posted August 28, 2001 I don't think I had any medication while pregnant. I've always been real concerned about what goes in my body while pregnant. I have one little boy who had stopped growing till being put on the diet. One with constant diarrhea. So I can see these might be celiac. But two more? Is that pushing the laws of chance or something? I mentioned the possibility of celiac to this dentist (who is a painless dentist, and younger so I thought he might be more educated?). He acknowledged the connection between weak enamel and celiac, but didn't make any comment about this son. Referred back to candy, pop and bottles. Anyway, thanks . It just seemed to me that I had read others talking about some extensive dental work, and wondered about a connection to these kid's gut problems.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2001 Report Share Posted August 29, 2001 I could see the acidity of juices causing problems. My kids don't get juice, even on a daily basis. Never have.
