Can Striped Teeth Be Whitened?

January 15, 2008
Asked By:

I have very thin, yellowish, horizontal stripes on my teeth. My mom tells me my teeth are striated like this because I was on antibiotics a lot as a kid. You can really only see the stripes when you look closely, but they make my teeth overall look less than dazzling. Is there any whitening treatment or other option that will address this problem?
