is there any way I can get rid of these stains without going to the dentist? he scrapes 'em off every time but they always come back, only on those two teeth. obviously I should've asked while I was there, but I didn't.

would scraping my teeth with sharp, pointy objects be a bad idea?
yes, there was flouride in my water when I was growing up, and I think there is here in utah too (?). I've had 'em for like 4 years (aside from the few weeks they stay away after visiting the distance).Originally posted by: vi_edit
How long have you had them for? They could be from high flouride content in the water where you grew up. High flouride content can stain your teeth brown.
Well there's another use for a seam ripper. You know you can buy those teeth scrapers for home use from a supermarket, in the dental section, e.g. this one (scroll down). I bought one last year for about $5. Cheap insurance against bad tartar buildup.
I checked kmart before posting this and they didn't have one. *shrug*Originally posted by: tenchim

I'm surprised you haven't merely asked your dentist for advice being that he/she is the one scrubbing that crap off your teeth.
