White spots on the floor could be caused by spills of substances like bleach or cleaning agents, or by water damage.

If the spots persist, you may need to consult a professional cleaner or consider refinishing the floor.


What is this white stuff on your teeth?

There are several possible causes for white spots on your teeth. If the spots have always been there it is likely that something happened when the teeth were developing such as excess fluoride, a high fever or trauma. If the teeth developed the white spots the most likely cause is demineralization of the enamel. This is a fancy way of saying your tooth started the decay (cavity) process. If you use fluoride the decaying can stop, but only the surface of the tooth hardens leaving this white "scar" on the tooth. I often see this in my patients that have worn braces. These white spots can be reversed. The treatment is done partially in the dentist office and partly at home.
