Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.
Actually these silver tooth which you are mentioning are artificial crowns on the tooth, these artificial crowns are placed to maintain gap between teeth for permanent teeth, as now permanent teeth are erupted you can get them replaced.
Hope it will help you.
