JS is right you should see a dentist.

If the line is hard, shiny and away from the gum line it's probably a stained arrested lesion. If it's soft, matt and next to the gum line it's probably active decay.

Either way brush with fluoride toothpaste, use fluoride mouthwash and cut down on the frequency of sugar intake or else the lesion will start decaying again/get worse.

It really is hard to say. Could be something as simple as a stain. See your dentist soon just to be sure.
