Sorry, but they have improved a bit.  Still rather brownish ( they were
absolutely disgusting to look at).  I'm still trying to find a good calcium
regime to build them up again.  There is a booklet "Good Teeth Birth to
Death" by Dr Gerard F Judd, 6615 W. Lupine, Glendale, AZ 85304-3136 phone
602-412-3955.  (Tell him I suggested it).  I think it was $12 or something.
Most of what he wrote makes a lot of sense, except a little bit about doing
your own fillings!
