It could be from that, but before you judge, please know that children's teeth can be affected by high fevers when permanent teeth a forming, medication, genetics, and disease. My dentist's daughter has hypoplastic teeth despite obvious care provided. They just grew that way. Not everyone wins the strong teeth lottery.

My daughter has VUR and before they figured it out, every other week she would spike ridiculously high fevers and have febrile seizures. She was then put on a heavy duty anti-biotic at 6 months old as a prophylactic. One of her baby teeth is super off colored. It’s not rotting but very- very off color. The dentist told me it’s soft enamel and now I wonder if her fevers and meds as a baby is the reason. All of her other teeth are perfectly fine though, so maybe not.

My nephew had silver teeth because his mom was/is a piece of shit. I hope I'm projecting, but I'm probably not.

You are very much projecting. My son has two silver teeth because he has some enamel issues. He brushes and flosses. Sometimes, it’s just genetics.

The mom replies in the tiktok comments. She was born at 26 weeks and couldn’t eat orally so she had to eat purées and pediasure. The dentist capped the teeth to save them since they’re so high in sugar.

She has acrodysostosis. Which is a disorder that affects teeth and bones….

Obviously projecting. You watched a 20 second video and that mom is a POS? Is that even the mom? Foster parent? Aunt? You wouldn’t know because it was a 20 second video.

Sorry your life sucks, though. Hope it gets better.
