In Canada, 16 percent of children may have mild or very mild\u00a0dental fluorosis<\/a>. While fluorosis is considered a cosmetic dental problem, we recommend that you supervise your children in their oral care routine to prevent dental fluorosis.<\/p>\n

Dental fluorosis is a is a condition that causes\u00a0white lines or dots<\/a>\u00a0appear on your child\u2019s teeth due to too much exposure to fluoride. Fluorosis typically occurs in the first eight years of life when the permanent teeth are still developing, and your children are exposed to too much fluoride.<\/p>\n

Tooth whitening, bonding, use of\u00a0crowns and veneers<\/a>\u00a0can help mask the stain caused by dental fluorosis. A method called acidic micro abrasion followed by remineralization can help recover dental surfaces affected by dental fluorosis.<\/p>\n
