6 years ago, I had a tooth treated and a post put in with a filling. I noticed a grayish ring appearing along my gum line. The tooth itself doesn't bother me at all. Based on what I've read online, the post might be showing through because my gum might have receded. Or, it could be secondary decay, which I really hope isn't the case 😏 I've made a dentist appointment, but I'm a little scared... what if it needs to be removed?
Feeling angry and want to lash out. What can I do to shift my focus?

Your tooth died, that's why it turned gray.

mariya He passed away 6 years ago (the nerve was removed), and the grayish border appeared recently.

I have a crown too because my tooth is dead. It's normal for them to darken.
