Hard to say: It hhis hard to say. It could be a stain or it could hard be decay. You should see a dentist for a examination to find out.

Brown spot on my tooth appeared suddenly at gum line. Dentist said it's an exposed nerve and asked if it hurt. I said no, then he scraped it with a tool and that hurt, so he desensitized it. Now it hurts when I eat sweets. Why? It never hurt before?
