Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / August 2007Two toned tooth
I just noticed that my front tooth is two toned. The top third is dark yellow while the bottom 2/3 is light yellow. What the heck happened? Is my tooth slowly dying? I'm not experiencing any pain at all. I was at the dentist last month and he didn't mention anything. It seems to be a very recent development. > I just noticed that my front tooth is two toned.

However, it is normal to have a gradation of color--darker near the gumline, lighter near the cutting edge of the incisor. Steve  SignatureMark & Steven Bornfeld DDS http://www.dentaltwins.com Brooklyn, NY 718-258-5001 My other tooth is a veneer, thanks to an elbow during a basketball game. The darker area is much darker than the bottom 2/3. I did a search here and it hit me that I had forgotten to mention that for years I had a hairline across this tooth. So from my gum to this line is where my tooth is markedly darker. I ran across my "dentin" in my search, I wonder if the enamel in that part has disappeared. For years, I could see the line, but never noticed a huge difference in color. Anyway, the reason why I noticed was that I was getting ready to use a whitening strip...for now, should I hold off? I used one today and it did not cause sensitivity in that tooth (it did in another tooth though). Will definitely call the dentist tomorrow. > Compare it to the other front tooth.

Good idea. The pulp tissue in this tooth could have been damaged at the same time as the other incisor and simply not show symptoms until years later.
