brown line on 2 teeth

I have recently noticed a brown line which comes up from the gum line on the left side of a tooth which is in my lower jaw and next to my first molar and also that first molar has a brown line coming up from the gum line also. These lines appeared out of nowhere and there is not any tooth sensitivity which accompanies them.

Re: brown line on 2 teeth

This could just be a stain starting to form or it's possible that you could be getting a cavity there. It sounds more like a staining situation to me though. When was the last time you had your teeth cleaned? If it's been a while, get them cleaned and that will also give the dentist a chance to look your teeth over.

Re: brown line on 2 teeth

Do you use tobacco? That will stain brown spots on your teeth. I had the same problem with my teeth from smoking cigarrettes, it could be another form of a stain if you don't use tobacco, and doesn't necessarily mean it's a cavity.

I had white fillings put in most of mine because the dental cleaning failed to remove the stains but they told me it wasn't cavities, that it was just the cigarrettes staining my teeth. But it just looked so bad, I went ahead and got the fillings.
