Teeth discolouration and prescribed slimming magistral formula: a case report by Tânia Fernandes, Armanda Amorim, Ana I. Fernandes

“…Stains may have originated from tainted plant extracts (containing tannins or uncontrolled/unlabeled heavy metals − Fe, Cu, Cd, Sn − due to phytogeography; contaminants) or PhP (an acid–base titration reagent, changing colour according to pH), here used as a stimulant laxative, withdrawn from medicines in many European countries due to its carcinogenic potential. The hypotheses raised warrant further investigation and clarification of the role of drugs/botanicals and contaminants in tooth staining.…”
