Could the brown stains on my son’s teeth be fluoride related?

Thursday, February 17th, 2011
Q.

My 12 year old son has brown stains on most of his adult teeth, we think from the effects of fluoride in the drinking water. We have been told that veneers are the only solution to this. Is this true? How soon can he undergo treatment? Is this something that the NHS should pick up the bill for? Many thanks

Tuesday, January 18th, 2011
Q.

Dear Mark
I’m 14 years old and used to have an addiction to fizzy drinks (Coca Cola) also not that much effort put in to brushing my teeth. There yellow and starting to erode where the two teeth and the gum meet. Getting a bit brown only a small bit. What can be done to help my teeth. Maybe not Cosmic service something else to freshen them up. I’m only drinking water and milk, no sweets and brushing my teeth 3 times a day.

Can I have porcelain veneers fitted on my two front teeth, on the NHS?

Friday, January 14th, 2011
Q.

I’m under 18, and I have a gap between my two front teeth (incisors), and I don’t like it at all, I was considering getting porcelain veneers for just them two teeth, but can I get it for free?
Since I do not want braces at all, and I haven’t got the money to pay approximately £400 (for both teeth) to get a private dentist to do it.
