My 4 year old is at the end of week 1 of a 2-week course of amoxicillin and his teeth are becoming stained brown. Does anybody know if this is reversible once he finishes treatment? I am taking him to dentist next week anyway for a check, but I was wondering if there is anything I can do in the meantime or if anybody can tell me once he stops taking the antibiotic his teeth will return to normal? He has very good oral hygiene generally so it must be the antibiotic causing the stains.

I think this is superficial discolouration and will reverse with time, or can be treated with dental solutions to remove discolouration. Check with a registered Pharmacist who should be able to give you more specific info while you're waiting for the dental appointment.

    • So have you never been in a house where the gas hob was turned on but not ignited?  You get a smell of gas,  You do not get an explosion when you light the flame.   You have to have a very high concentration of methane (over 4.4%)  for this to happen, the smell of the gas would be obvious half way down the street.  They add mercaptans to natural gas to give it that smell at very low concentrations.   Gas explosions happen once in a blue moon, in places like residential homes in the basements where, if unchecked, a leak can get up to explosive concentrations.   Back to my original comment about Bunsen burners.  You'd got 30 kids in a classroom but no explosions.   The establishment of Corgi (now Gas Safe) and the compulsory annual testing of boilers and cookers was mainly due to the relatively high number of deaths from carbon monoxide poisoning from faulty appliances and blocked flues in rented properties. I don't expect the OP to test it themselves, I would, but that his my decision.  But you may get Natural Grid to do this free of charge if you ask nicely. I thought the video was hilarious.  The guy shouts don't do this yourself, call in help.

    • Or maybe let @malumbu come round and test it for you, thus potentially getting two birds with one stone 🤣
    • Have you ever considered your own motivations?
