    Maybe its something to do with the enamel being worn down?

    You know on the toothpaste adverts where the shine the light behind the teeth and they come up blue? You could try some of that fancy toothpaste to strengthen em

    Go to the dentist tho so you know for sure

    lol yeah. it's a bit confusing though, when i take good care of my teeth.. i eat a balanced diet and try not to drink too much tea or coffee (although that is not always possible!) ;p

    Blue generally isn't a good colour for teeth.

    It could be that the nerve is damaged, so it's definitely worth seeing a dentist about.

    Could it be a side-effect of any medication you may be taking, possibly?

    i'm not really taking any.. well, i take painkillers, i take kalms, and have some stuff for dizziness, but i doubt anything of them would do that.

    i'm going to make an appointment, but goodness knows when i'll actually get to see someone. :eek2:
