Hi..tetracycline taken by the pregnant mother can affect the teeth of the child.. However there are lot of options available for you to get a beautiful smile.. Veneers or crowns will be suitable for you.. You will require an clinical examination to determine which of these will b apt for you. Hope you get a beautiful smile again:-)
