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.

    • Purse with cash and cards (including photo card) found in road local to East Dulwich Tabernacle. It will be here (107 Barry Road) all day (Sunday 21 December) if you want to collect or PM me.  In case some one else who knows R Howard, please alert her.    Thank you
    • Thanks Sue.  No the car just drove on.  We don't know if they noticed.  We were driving behind.  We were just glad we could be with the cat, and take him to the vet, rather than leaving him there 😞
    • Certainly the infamous (and mythical) SE London cat killer turned out to be foxes attacking dying and dead cats injured by cars, but fox: cat encounters do appear to happen, even where cats are victorious. Fox: adult humans less so. At least where foxes are the aggressors.
    • That was very kind of you to take the cat to the vet. Did the car not stop?
