What Causes Dark Spot On The Upper Denture?

Hello, I got new dentures approx. 2 yrs. ago. I suddenly noticed a dark black spot on my upper denture, at the top of the front tooth, near the connection at the gum. It is clearly not a stain.. it almost looks metally. Does this sometimes happen? and what can I do?
