If you mean decalcification.? Then you cannot do anything to remove this, its not like plaque you cannot just "scrape" it away.. Teeth whitening products usually help balance out the discolorment caused by this and definitely makes it less noticeable.. I have heard there are some creams, I'm not so sure....But to prevent from any more of this from happening (most commonly happens from lack of good hygiene while wearing braces) kick up your good hygiene.. Brush twice a day and use whitening strips if you need them.. Good luck and hope I helped..Health Question & Answer
