An open question to anyone who has been on Clofazimine meds for MAC/MAI: Did you ever get permanent grey/black/brown staining of your teeth?
What did you do about it?
(PS. It seems to permanently stain false teeth or crowns too, as well as real teeth).

@anniepie I got the staining from the big 3, so I go to the dental hygienist every 6 months and she cleans it off for me. Take care Heather

I have only been on Clofazimine for 3 months. My skin is a slight bit darker but have not noticed my teeth darkening. I do have a number of crowns. I’ll keep you posted.
