Replaced tooth is causing gum to discolour

Q. HI Dr Patel, I ‘ve broke two front teeth years ago, I replaced those now my gum is gettng black, I can’t smile anymore is horrible, what shoul I do? Should i send youa picture before I make any appointment? thanks

A. You are more than welcome to send me some pictures.  The crowns you have had may contain metal which can leave grey / black edges.  One option may be new restorations which are metal free.
