Yes, I think that Augmentin can cause tooth discoloration. My coworker and I (we work in the dental field) both have daughter's around the same age and both of our girls were on the Augmentin for a 10 day cycle. We both noticed that our daughter's had a brown staining around the gum line after taking the Augmentin. We are both very diligent about brushing and neither one of us had noticed the stain before the medicine was taken. To remove the stain we used adult toothpaste and a brush with a spinning head. This removed the stain almost completely. I have noticed that it is still slightly visible, so a professional cleaning is probably the best way to remove the stain entirely.
