Possible diagnosis are:
1. dental plaque
2. dental calculus
3. decalcification of dental enamel
4. incipient caries
For #1 you can wipe it off clean
For #2 your dental hygienist can clean it out for you
For #3 and #4, your dentist need to treat it
Best wishes,

effortless - you want your chew adjusted. I had an same problem with a crown. after I were given the crown, i'd continuously get nutrients (meat) trapped between that the teeth. Drove me nuts! led to soreness. My dentist did a chew adjustment on it and it helped a touch, yet nevertheless led to probs - so he did a 2d adjustment. Now it truly is positive. what's occurring is that your top the teeth are colliding with the hot crown and the crown needs to be diminished a touch with a dental bur. it truly is enormously effortless to do - make an appt quickly!

I haven't the foggiest ? But you should get a dental cleaning at-least once every 6 months if you can afford it . But what that white stuff is it doesn't belong there so it can't be good .

it can be build up or staining from the fluoride in the water. Check with your dentist to prevent any kind of cavities or oral diseases.
Good Luck

People with proper hygene scrub the crud off their teeth every single day. Some even brush MORE than once a day. Welcome to a more civilized lifestyle.
