Gingivitis doesn%26#039;t cause the white marks that you may see around the neck of the teeth once the gums have settled, they are caused by the plaque that also causes the gingivitis. Those white marks are basically the earliest form of decay and are caused by the minerals being lost from the tooth. Later they would have gone brown then broken up...a cavity. Good news is that they shouldn%26#039;t get any worse. Try getting a higher fluoride concentration in your toothpaste or even better, get some fluoride varnish applied (eg Duraphat).
White marks on the face of a tooth are there because of the way you develop...think of them like a birth mark and they can be treated with a technique called microabrasion.
Are the white marks on teeth from gingivitis permanent?
They arent marks: they%26#039;re the root, and they%26#039;re always white. The fact that you can see them is because your gums have receded.
You cant change your teeth%26#039;s color (aside from bleaching them), but you can improve your gum%26#039;s health
Reply:Unfortunately, they never go away even with bleaching. One of my good friends has had them since we were Kinder buddies and they are still there today in our twenties.
Reply:Good answer Cynical George and right on the mark.
