Interesting! The first photo looks liked mottled enamel/floursis seen in human teeth .... in the second photo however, some teeth are still white .... in humans that feature is seen when there is a 'developmental disturbance' e.g. an illness/infection during that period of enamel mineralization (example of intrinsic staining)....and I suspect that there is evidence of calculus surface deposits in the second photo (example of extrinsic staining)....

 

Tetracycline is also a cause of intrinsic staining..... an analysis of the first photo tooth sample would be interesting .... in the second photo...the croc needs 'to improve' his tooth brushing.

Dave,

 

Great shot!

 

I am copying this email to my friend and dentist Dr Dipak Chudasama who may be able to provide some input.

 

My suspicion is of high fluoride levels, but then again, I may be wrong.

 

How are you doing?

I spent some time at the hyena dam recently and noticed that the crocs had brown teeth. The attached images are of 2 different crocs and I also saw a third with brown teeth. Any ideas anyone.
