Question: I have black stuff that lines around my teeth, any idea>.?
I have black stuff that lines around my teeth all the time, i have to scratch it off constantly, and i usually find it on the back of my lower front teeth. I would say the it was something i was eating but, it is not i eat different things everyday, and i wouldve also guessed i was getting it from the water ive been drinking but, one week i drank bottles and still saw it. i have really nice big white sraight teeth ( the big chicklet kind everyone says) but it i were to not scratch off the black stuff for like a month, it would cover my entire teeth. and it takes a long time to get off as it is very very hard to scratch off! does anyone have an idea.? i have asked dentist before, he didnt know what it was.Health Question & Answer
