Usually, in cases of saturnine discoloration of the gums, the teeth are
dark brown at their bases or necks, while their edges are of a lighter
brown, with a shade of yellow or green. This appearance should not be
mistaken for the ordinary deposit of tartar. The incisors and canines
are most liable to this discoloration, but it may occur on all the
teeth, though they are seldom affected in an equal degree. When the
process of gingival absorption has resulted in a loss of substance, the
discoloration of the teeth becomes more decided. The teeth thus affected
finally deteriorate; they become brittle, break off, decay, and fall out
long before the usual time. The coloring matter adheres firmly to the
osseous substance of the teeth, with which it appears to combine, so as
to be detached with difficulty, as is the case also with that of the
gums, [117]. ►
In general, when the blueness of the gums is very decided, the
discoloration of the teeth is also strongly marked, and vice versâ, [117].
► The discoloration of the teeth and
buccal mucous membrane, by contact with lead molecules, may take place
in five or six days, or after months or even years of exposure, the time
varying in different classes of workmen, [117].

The first and most frequent indication of the presence of lead in the
system, is a peculiar discoloration of the gums and teeth. The gums
bordering on the teeth, to the depth of one or two lines, are usually
blue or slate colored, their remaining portion being of a very light
bluish-red, passing gradually into the natural hue of the buccal mucous
membrane. Sometimes the discoloration spreads all over the gums, or even
over the entire buccal mucous membrane. In a good many cases only the
gums immediately bordering on the teeth become slate-colored, in strong
contrast with the natural appearances of their remaining portion. They
at first assume a violet-red tinge, becoming decidedly slate-colored,
sooner or later, [117]. ► The discolored portion of the gums quite
often becomes considerably thinner, sometimes as thin as a sheet of
note-paper; or else, as more frequently occurs, it dwindles in
superficial extent. In the latter case the interdental partitions
gradually disappear, and the concavity of the gums is increased, in
consequence of molecular absorption, which takes place within the
substance of their tissue, without visible solution of continuity. When
this process of absorption is complete, the teeth are stripped of a
portion of their gums, and are laid bare. The gums thus form, quite
frequently, only a more or less projecting pad, sometimes marked by
vertical incisions. This change in the nutrition of the gums always
follows upon their discoloration. The latter, however, often disappears,
in proportion to the shrinking of the gums from interstitial absorption,
so that what is left of them is only slightly tinged with blue. Usually
the discoloration and loss of substance do not take place in both
alveolar borders to the same extent. The twofold change is generally
most marked in their anterior portion. The lower gums are apt to show
rather more of it than the upper; and it sometimes happens that the gums
of only two or three teeth are thus affected, [117]. [800.]
► The above described discoloration
of the gums and teeth we have never observed, except in those whose
buccal mucous membrane has been brought in contact with lead particles.
We have examined the mouths of seven hundred and eighty-five persons who
had not worked in lead compounds, or ingested them in any way, and in
not one of them could we discover the least trace of the specific
discoloration produced by sulphate of lead, [117]. ► The
peculiar blue line on the gums, the edge of the gum where it is attached
to the neck of the teeth, was fringed with a very distinct blue line,
about one-twentieth of an inch in width, so that three or four of the
molar teeth on each side in upper jaw were thus half surrounded towards
the roof of the mouth with a blue crescent, [236]. ► The
fatal line was more of less present in the gums of all; in two cases a
slate-colored line was well defined, and in one of these the mucous
membrane of the mouth was strewed with spots of the same color, [266]. ►
Gums blue, [119], [121], [136],

[810.] ►
Gums, with the exception of a slight reddish blue discoloration beneath
the left lower canine tooth, were natural; later the bluish line
extended beneath all the lower incisors and canine teeth, [435]. ► A
blue line on the margin of the gums was always present, which varied in
depth, in some cases involving the gum to the extent of one-eighth of an
inch, in others being a mere trace, most observable opposite the
bicuspid teeth, [446]. ► Gums show a very remarkable blue line,
with the inter-dental processes much shrunken, [585]. ► Blue
line along the alveolar border, [458].

on the edges of the gums about the upper incisor teeth, none elsewhere, [404]. ►
