Teeth discoloration?
This isnt discolouration this is something called fluorosis or mottling. Dental fluorosis occurs because of the excessive intake of fluoride either through naturally occurring fluoride in the water, water fluoridation, toothpaste, or other sources. The damage in tooth development occurs between the ages of 6 months to 5 years, from the overexposure to fluoride. Teeth are generally composed of hydroxyapatite and carbonated hydroxyapatite; when fluoride is present, fluorapatite is created.
Although it is usually the permanent teeth which are affected, In mild cases, there may be a few white flecks or small pits on the enamel of the teeth.

That is from too much flouride in your system when you were a kid. It's called flouridosis, and it is treatable. You need to see a dentist. Nothing over the counter will fix it.
Other Replys:See a dentists and have them permanently removed it should cost no more than a regular check up.
Other Replys:try brushing them 3-4 times a day for 1 week with toothpaste.
Other Replys:whiteness of teeth near the tips could be calcifications or perhaps erosion of enamel. you should call or go see your dentist to see what the best thing to do is... good luck
