Hi Joy and Snoopy,
Thank you for your responses.

Joy, your profile says you are in Florida. There is no way my friend could make it there to see a dentist. We both live in the backwoods of BC. Vancouver is a full day drive from here and no large cities in between. Do you think he would advise me if it is indeed within the scope of homeopathy to turn these teeth back to their original white healthy state? If it is enamel degradation, can it be restored/strengthened with the correct remedy? Or perhaps contribute to this thread? Or know of homeopathic dentists in this part of the world? Any websites dedicated to homeopathy on dentistry? This would arm my friend with additional info when she goes to see her homeopath. I would be interested in hearing from him since he is a dentist and therefore presumably more familiar with teeth remedies and specific tooth related problems than another homeopath. Perhaps you would like to email him and find out if he would like to contribute to this thread and maybe plug his book. I'm sure others here would be interested in hearing his opinion and experiences. Or email me if you think it would be preferable for me to contact him privately.

Snoopy - Just looking at Boericke pocket, "ill effects from vaccination" and "warts" are both listed with Thuja and Silica in italics. Why would you jump from Silica and Fluo Acid to Thuja? Seems to me that Silica might be confirmed by this rather than replaced by Thuja. Also Thuja says "teeth decay next to gums" The upper part of her teeth are still white and healthy looking. Although she does have slight receding on one of her front teeth which is slightly crooked which is indicated by Thuja. I'm just trying to wrap my brain around it all. I can understand why possibly Fluo Acid would be rejected but not Sil. Another thing I noted while reading up on these remedies is that Silica enjoys warm baths (better from warmth worse from cold) - I cant remember where I read it though. One of my friends favorite past times is a long hot bath with a historical romance novel. It always makes it her feel better, particularly during her periods or during the cold winter months. Does this additional information make you lean towards Silica again?

I think I'll ask her if she wouldn't mind if I do a practice case taking on her. I bought Homeopathic Methodology by Todd Rowe and haven't really looked at it yet - I'm still slowly working through the Organon. So many books, so much information, and then there is the seemingly infinite homeopathic resources on the net.

No worries though, I will not prescribe and she will go to see a real homeopath. I am very interested in finding out what remedy the Homeopath gives her.
