sorry to bump such an old post, but i just came across it. i actually have been noticing that "acid erosion" that seems to be weakening my enamel (never realized i had a problem really until a commercial came on saying i did.. ha ha) and was always curious if that was caused in some way by meds, etc. from CF or if its just from too much coffee.
<br />
<br />with regard to the whitening... i actually have the white spots on my teeth too, but they seem to come and go. they are absolutely horrible when i whiten my teeth (weird, huh?!) its almost as though the bleach in the kit brightens and brings out the white spots. so, i know every time i bleach, even though i may be getting a whiter smile, i'm also going to get brighter white calcium deposits (or whatever they are). i also notice it more after teeth cleanings, but its not near as noticable as when i whiten my teeth. odd.

<br />sorry to resurrect this old post, but with the acid erosion on my teeth (almost see-through at spots on my bottom teeth), i wanted to post in an appropriate forum and this seemed it. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">
