Too much flouride can cause rather horrid white/ brown marks on the teeth that are permanent. We live in a flouride area.

Interesting, didn't know that! Spencer's top front teeth are white & brown, but the dentist was suspecting it could be from antibiotics taken when she was in utero or as a small baby as she has never had fluoride!

Yeah - some abs can do similar - it's called fluorosis when due to fluoride.
