Dentist Doctor Laurenz Maresch wants children not to be afraid of him or his colleagues. That’s why he’s happy to answer questions about visiting the doctor’s office
Doctor Laurenz Maresch answers: Yes, so-called chalk teeth really do exist. These teeth are naturally softer than normal teeth. Nobody knows exactly why this is so. A central incisor and the so-called school tooth (this is the sixth in the row) can be chalk teeth. These teeth are simply growing out of the jaw more softly. You then get a discolouration on these teeth. Luckily there is something you can do about it. For example sealing the tooth. The tooth surface is filled with liquid plastic. He’s better protected that way. If the tooth breaks, you can put a filling. In an emergency, it must be pulled. But you can also do something at home to support these teeth: use toothpaste with fluoride. The substance makes teeth stronger.
