Fluoride Supplements
“Ten year old, Gradon got some nasty news from his dentist and it wasn’t a cavity,” reports CBC-TV. “I saw this yellow stuff and thought it was my toothpaste and kept trying to wash it off; but it wouldn’t come off,” says Gradon.
Those patches are fluorosis, a condition that shocks many parents because of the cause -- too much fluoride. “It was even a bigger surprise to his pediatric dentist -- he’s Gradon’s father,” said the Canadian broadcaster.
