Hi All, hope to find answers from all you wise mamas. I've searched through the dental archives but they seem difficult to read with all the smilemomma deleted posts. 
I am very concerned because we've found some brownish spots, like staining, in the two front teeth of 22 month old ds. I tried brushing gently to specificaly see if they could be removed but no, they are definitely there. I'm lost because we brush teeth every day, eat no refined food at all, and eat super healthy in general. I have read however that general tooth health is somewhat contagious, and dp and I have not the best dental health; we are working on it but we wonder if our cavities from our previous not healthy eating life are affecting ds. And the brown spots, are they cavities? Is there sth than can be done besides going to a dentist? we try to stay as much away from the medical world as possible.
Thanks a lot in advance

: I've should have known better. So, a water filter is tha way to go, right?
The sad part is that to fix the brown spots, it is cosmetic dentistry and not covered by most insurance. However, my spots faded over the years. Most people do not notice them. Your DS hasn't gotten his big teeth yet, so maybe they won't come in with spots! Good luck and keep him away from that poison!!
