Hello dear,
It’s calculus deposits underneath. You’ll need a dental cleaning done by a dental professional and a good oral hygiene to prevent in future. This calculus deposits do not get removed from your toothbrush so twice a year dental cleaning is mandatory for that healthy gums and tooth. Regular flossing and brushing twice daily would also be better.
