Suggest Treatment For Yellow Discoloration Of Teeth

Hi Doctor, I have a yellow tooth from my childhood or from the time I got my 1st tooth. I consulted a doctor once and he mentioned it should be flurosis. Please suggest me with a treatment to get rid of the yellow color and would also like to know if there is a age constrain for this treatment.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The yellowish discoloration could be because of the fluorosis or secondary to deposits.
Consult a oral physician and endodontist to rule out these two conditions.
If it is fluorosis, then you can get the tooth treated with veneers or tooth color crown.
If it is because of the deposits, the get the teeth cleaned once and maintain the oral hygiene after that.
i hope my answer will help you, take care.
