CASE STUDY

Still leaving stains on teeth–the legacy of minocycline?
 

This case demonstrates that minocycline has the potential to stain unerupted third molar crowns in patients 16 years or older. Minocycline should be considered a second-line agent for the treatment of papulopustular acne. Greater product disclosure should also be given on its ability to stain teeth at any age.
