I just noticed that my 19 month old son's front teeth are stained in light brown patches. He doesn't eat many sweets. What could this be? could anyone recommend a holistic dentist (we are in London) who could help? Magda

is http://www.dentease.co.uk/ in kingston local? and yes some antibiotics can stain teeth badly...i had a low dose antibiotic for years as a teen as i had just bad acne , amongst the other things it screwed up were my wisdom teeth... when i had them removed they were literally brown- almost stripes of shades of brown a really awful colour- i gave them to the dentist as he had never seen any so bad (wish i had kept them now as proof to the GP how much long term antibiotics screw your body up!)

I'll second Suresh Naidoo at Dentease. He is our dentist too.
Hello Mums - I am wondering if anyone can recommend a dentist in London or nearby who doesn't use mercury fillings and has a relatively holistic/natural approach? I have really struggled to find one and now have a broken filling! thank x
