[QUOTE="MattKW, post: 119549, member: 7514"] First photo is an isolated mottled area on incisor - a hypoplasia, most probably due to fluoridation. It might be a bit unattractive, but that can be easily remedied with maybe some enamel microabrasion for the darker part, and if necessary follow with a shallow composite filling. Second photo a bit harder to see - don't forget that adult teeth are naturally yellow anyway. Also, if the child isn't too concerned, then don't make too much fuss about it. The time to take action is if the child expresses concern, or they start getting teased. Talk to other parents, and you'll find there's a lot of variation. I've had an 8 year-old ask me once about bleaching - and she had perfectly normal teeth. Please ignore BeenThere's scaremongering. [/QUOTE]
