Are there silver fillings or crowns in/on one or both of those teeth? If so, you may just be looking an amalgam tattoo
If the spot is really a bump or blister looking thing, it may be the exit point for some infection around the tooth.
If you haven't had your teeth cleaned for a while, it could be stained tartar lodged under the gum.
Here are 3 things it could be, though best to get it checked out.
