“Grey color between teeth?”
There is a grey color between two teeth and the gum line in the left lower jaw. Is it black tartar? Can it be solved by brushing with toothpaste after adding Baking Soda (NaHCO³) to the toothpaste?

This kind of stain has to be removed professionally
The gray color if recently noticed may be the start of tooth decay and so a visit to a dentist should be scheduled so that an appropriate dental X-ray and exam may be performed whereby you may receive an appropriate diagnosis.
It could be a black tartar. You need to get it checked and if it is tartar, then you need a professional cleaning. Baking soda and brushing will not solve it completely.
It probably is tartar buildup. Need to have your teeth cleaned by the dental hygienist. Baking soda won't hurt to use, but it probably won't remove it.
It does sound as you are describing black tarter. A professional dental exam and debridement//cleaning is the best way to deal with that issue.
