It could be decalcification, fluorosis, or just an enamel defect. All are common. Decalcification is basically like the start of a cavity, which can be reversed with daily use of a good fluoride (try ACT).
It is either decalcification or fluorosis. You either didnt have a enough flouride and your tooth minerals broke down or you have too much systemic (ate it) fluoride in your system which caused the stain.

Usually it is b/c u ingested too much fluoride toothpaste at some point when u were small and it shows up as a white spot on your tooth. No big deal.

My son had those. The dentist said it was like a freckle. Nothing to worry about, it went away after awhile.
