Thin black lines on teeth can be caused by several factors, including the accumulation of stain from food, beverages, or tobacco use, as well as the presence of certain bacteria that produce pigments. Additionally, poor oral hygiene can lead to the buildup of plaque and tartar, which may appear as dark lines. Some dental conditions, such as enamel hypoplasia, can also contribute to the appearance of discoloration. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene practices can help prevent and address these issues.

What can cause thin black lines to develop on teeth and what are the treatments?

I am a dental hyiene student and we studied dental stains eairler this semester. "Black Line Stains" are a calculus like stain that forms along the gum line of the tooth. It is a stain that occurs more commonly in children and women and oddly enough it is associated with clean mouth. The treatment is regular dental cleanings by your hygienist or dentist. And with this particular stain, good dental hygiene will not help this stain because there is no one particular thing that will cause it. It also has a tendency to recur despite regular personal oral care.
