[|Human|] I have been brushing and flossing my sons teeth since he was one years old. He is 17 months now. I recently noticed that on his two bottom teeth he has a dark line around two of his bottom teeth. Its not directly by the lining of the teeth but under the pink lining like a stripe circumferencing the two teeth. He has an appointment on March 21. Should I be concerned and see if the doctor can see him right away?
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for the query. As per your complaint a dark line around the lower teeth of your baby that is appearing like a stripe can be either of the 2 reasons:1. Staining of the teeth.2. Decay in teeth. I would suggest you to consult a Periodontist and get evaluated, and a thorough clinical evaluation will help in ruling out the exact cause of the dark line and treatment can be done accordingly. In case if there is staining of the teeth then it can be very easily removed with scaling as stains cannot be removed with tooth brushing as they are tightly attached to the tooth. In case if it is due to decay then filling of the same with tooth colored filling material can help. Also, please relax as it does not look like medical emergency so do not worry about it. Hope this helps. Regards.
