Fluorosis treatment in Guadalupe

It's advisable to get an evaluation when stains or color changes appear in the enamel of the teeth starting in childhood. Dental fluorosis is a change in the enamel caused by high exposure to fluoride during the formation of the teeth.

What is it?: These are changes in the appearance of the enamel that range from faint white lines or stains to more pronounced coloring and textures, depending on the degree.

Common signs: White, yellowish, or brown stains, and in some cases an uneven tooth surface.

Which specialist treats it?: The dentist evaluates the enamel; the pediatric dentist, the endodontist, and the orthodontist may be involved depending on the age and the case. If you notice these changes in your smile or your children's, a professional evaluation helps guide the care.
