Why do so many gymnasts have yellow teeth as teens?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Many possible reason: Now i'm curious to look, i didn't notice. The color of the teeth is not caused by a sport. Many countries to not place a priority on whitening or even caring for their teeth like we do here in the United States. Many things can cause "yellow teeth" including genetic and environmental issues as well as a lack of proper oral hygiene.

Not in my view: Both of my kids were gymnasts and i even coached for some time. Perhaps it is in the area where you live or just the heredity of those kids and the family tooth color. I don't know of any other answer for you.
