Help! What is happening to my teeth?!?
Hey so I'm not sure what is going on with my teeth.
I feel like I take decent care of them, water pik, manual brushing after meals( trying not to over brush). I don't eat refined sugar and avoid sweets altogether. I only drink water, tea, sometimes coffee. I try to not sip, but consume within an hour. I drink lots of water!
I noticed some transparency a few weeks ago so I got some xylitol gum( I did some light research and from what I've gathered, its supposed to help) and have been trying to use that between meals. I also use a fluoride mouthwash before bed.
These marks showed up and they look almost porous? I'm freaking out a bit and it's going to be a while until I can get in to see a dentist. I've never had many teeth issues, just some cavities from overconsumption of sweets in adolescence.
Someone help me I am so stressed. These like dark marks are new and the transparency I only noticed a few weeks ago!
