Teeth Stained

I had my teeth cleaned three weeks ago and they did an awesome job. The hygenist used some kind of sand-blasting technique and my teeth, especially the bottom ones, never looked better. Now they are getting stained again.

Is this another fun aspect of celiac? Come on, they are already chipped and pitted!

I don't know if there is a link to stains and celiac, but I do believe enamal problems and cavities can go along with it. Do you drink coffee, tea or soda? The first two can stain your teeth. Soda has got to be one of the worse things for your teeth. The acid in the soda can wear down the enamal. I have a yellowish tint always to my teeth despite how well they clean them. I don't event think bleaching would help, although I have never tried. I believe that my tooth discoloration was caused by getting too much floride. Also repeated antibiotic use can discolor teeth. This happened to my boys. When they were first seen that was the first thing they asked me. That does polish off and now their teeth are good and white. However I am disturbed that my oldest has eight fillings allready and the youngest has four. I have them brush twice a day. I never had a cavity or a filling until I was around 32.

Edit: PS do you think that because your teeth are already pitted that they get stained eaiser from stuff getting into them? Just a thought.

You might get some info on the "oil pulling" thread under gab/chat.

Sometimes it is just the aging process.....

I'm trying the oil pulling and it seems to be helping OR I'm imagining it is!

I am 44 and it seems like my teeth are starting to fall apart. I just had tooth replaced-only $2500 and it was considered cosmetic! Never mind the fact I couldn't chew on one side for 9 months.

I don't have pitting except on my back molars but, I'm sure they look bad too!

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thank you this really helped.

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.
