6 year olds new tooth is clear. Why?

My daughter is 6 years old. She lost her two front teeth a few months ago and her new ones are growing in. I noticed that one of the teeth seems more clear or translucent than white. Also in the center of that same tooth along the gumline it looks yellow. It is not plaque. It actually looks like inside the tooth is yellow. Will this go away? Is it normal? Thanks.

    The yellow color you're seeing is the dentin of the tooth. It's completely normal. Kid's enamel gets stronger as time goes on. If she can rinse and spit out completely (i.e., there's no risk of her swallowing a mouthwash), then I would have her start rinsing with ACT Anti-Cavity - it's a fluoride rinse. You don't rinse with water after using, but make sure she spits a few times to get the excess out of her mouth. Then you don't eat or drink for 30 minutes. They make a bubblegum flavor for kids. This will help strengthen her enamel.

    It's important that she doesn't actually ingest the fluoride. If you think she might swallow it, then go to the dentist to get fluoride painted on her teeth.

    Enamel is actually clear, so don't panic about this. I think you should definitely start taking her to the dentist for regular check-ups. It's important to protect her teeth and enamel now.

    One of my teeth is like that. It's kinda see-through and looks like it has a little yellow thing inside. My tooth got more colour as a grew, but I've never wondered why it's happened. I'm sure it's nothing to worry about. x

    in the experience that your canine is having seizures it won't be bred. Neutering removes hormones from a canines gadget which impression the innovations. In some breeds that they had actual subject concerns with the innovations being squeezed from the cranium being to narrow, this led to behavioral subject concerns and seizures. in case you're taking those hormones out of the equation it may end the seizures and can probably restoration the behavioral subject concerns. on the least it wont harm the area and as your canine should not be bred i might have it executed to be sure if it enables.

    You have to make sure she brushes them well, and at least twice a day. The color will grow out in a matter of time. The clear tooth means she may have a gingivitis disease. But it is just growing problems. Take her to a doctor, to cure, it will need a special medication. Just don't freak out, its not a big deal. Brush every day for....maybe 2 weeks and if nothing occurs, see a doctor. Good luck! :D

    I'm not sure if that's something you can fix on your own. I know it's the answer everyone gives, but go to her dentist. Only he/she can really tell you whats going on. With kids, you never know what's going on. There's so many diseases or infections that she could get or have, only your dentist can give you a clean-cut answer.

    That would be an awesome question for her dentist. If these are permanent teeth coming in and something doesn't seem quite right its time for a dental evaluation!

    My girlfriend tried all sorts of different diets and products, most without success. Her friend let her try out a new Acai Berry product she was using and she now swears by it.

    Shes lost over 13 pounds already, most of the weight went from her tummy, hips, bottom and thighs. Apparently the Acai Berry flushes all the waste out your system and cleanses your body of toxins and bacteria.

    She got her own supply for free too, only had to pay a few dollars for shipping.
