Q. Hi I have had a crown in place for 15 years+. Think it must have metal in it as I now have a dark tone to the gum above the tooth. Can this be rsolved or is it a case of replacing the crown with another material? Thanks.
A. Unfortunatley you would normally need to replce the crown and bury the edge of the crown below the gum. You could also use an all ceramic crown to avoid this in the future.
