Infant/toddler tooth discoloration?

Monday, March 14, 2011

My friend's son (he's almost 2) has had a discolored-brown bottom tooth ever since it came in. She mentioned this to the pediatrician and dentist, but they didn't seem too concerned. However, now she has noticed that another one of this teeth is the same color AND his bottom gums are starting to look weird. She is militant about dental hygiene, so it's not tooth decay. He was in intensive care for a few weeks when he was born, but other than that he is a happy and healthy little boy! Does anyone have experience with this or any ideas of what could be causing this? Thanks!

It may be due to medication, just leave it, it is a baby tooth
