Dental enamel problems stemming from celiac disease involve permanent dentition and include tooth discoloration—white, yellow, or brown spots on the teeth—poor enamel formation, pitting or banding of teeth, and mottled or translucent-looking teeth.
Either nutritional deficiencies, combined with the celiac disease destroying the child's small intestine, causing the defect directly, or the child's immune system damages the teeth as they develop.
