RE: silver streaks on teeth

[Guest guest]

A couple of days ago I noticed some silver streaks on my front teeth

(both top and bottom). It looks like someone took a silver or grey

fine-point pen and made some marks on my teeth. It appears to just be

on the outside of the teeth--I don't think there is any internal

damage and I can't feel any damage to the tooth enamel, either, which

leads to me to believe that something I am eating is directly causing

these marks. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

Hi - I am curious to see how people will respond to this question.

About 3 weeks ago I noticed that my ds had some of these very same marks on

his teeth. I did some research on the internet about dental fluorosis and

his teeth do look similar to some of the pictures I saw there.

http://www.fluoridealert.org/dental-fluorosis.htm. His teeth look a little

like the second row of two pictures. The lines look the same but instead of

being brown, the lines look almost iridescent or silvery like you describe.

Let me know if you find any information out from other sources. BTW - I

have switched him to bottled spring water until we can purchase a home water

filtering system.
