Try Bicarbonate of soda in warm water, and use it as a mouth wash,,, doesn´t taste very nice so have some normal mouth wash handy.... for after wards...
Reply:my son takes meds that do the same thing call your dentist and ask them what you can do but we tried peroxide
Reply:Tetracycline doesn't stain adult/permanent teeth. I was given the drug as a baby and it stained my permanent teeth. The only way to whiten them in that case, is to get veneers. Ask your parents if you were given the drug as a child when you still had your baby teeth. If not, something else has discolored your teeth--see a dentist.
Reply:Hi im a Dental Nurse and tertracycline does not stain adult teeth it only stains the teeth of an unborn baby if the mum is taking them or a child normaly under 7 whos teeth are still developing thats why childern cannot take them i suspect you say your teeth are sensitive that its probably toothbrush abrasion which means your brushing too hard and the enamel is being worn away causing the dentine to show which is a lot more yellow as its the enamel that makes your teeth white
Reply:Yes Jay eleven is right very good
