Just been to the dentist who say that my dd(7) has weak enamel on her teeth. Her bottom front teeth came through first and were a little discoloured but now her molars are through and are also damaged and discoloured. He says that the cleaning etc is fine and has advised going onto adult toothpaste and actually rubbing the toothpaste on the affected teeth at least twice a week.
He says if we can keep the teeth going until she is 12 that would be good.
He says that something must have disrupted the formation of the teeth when in the womb but I can't remember being ill or taking antibiotics or anything?
As she was with me I didn't want to get her any more worried about it than she obviously was already so we just concentrated on what to do now rather than the more long term questions.
Does anyone have any experience of this and what to do about it, longer term prognosis etc?
I am worrying about her and feeling quilty for whatever I did that has caused this!
