Part of my daughter's gum is suddenly grey?

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has any experience of their child having a grey patch on their upper gum? It's about the size of a tooth - Just noticed that where my My 8 year old lost a tooth & a new tooth has never grown, her gum is suddenly grey in colour.
It's not painful or uncomfortable & I plan to call the dentist first thing tomorrow but I'm a bit alarmed! Shock

Well when they are teething as babies that what happens before a tooth erupts so might just be that. But good to get dentist to look.
