My mother is 50 year old. She keeps fasts 2-3 days a week. These days I have observed that spaces have been created in between his teeth and teeth has also becoming little bit pale. Is it a sign of any disease or anything else. Please suggest some remedy. Thank you.

Fasting reduces saliva production and hence teeth are not naturally flushed Proper cleaning and polishing can remove the deposits Spacing between teeth are common with age.

Hi lybrate-user. It may not be any disease. But gums become loose with the age. And that leads to gaps in the teeth. You may give her vitamin C, use toothpaste named Heklalva by Wheezal homoeopathy, and tell her to massage gums with Turmeric and Salt twice a day.
