You poor thing. You should have the dentist take a look at it.

It could be that the nerves around the tooth are dead.Best thing to do is see a dentist. You could probably have the tooth bleached to match the other one.Dentists do great things these days.

If the discolouration appears like it is just under the surface of the tooth, then a good bet is that you have a cravity which, if you don't have checked soon, will start to cause your tooth to splinter.

Do you go to the dentist regularily. If there was something wrong with it, they would tell you.
Crazy_person
you really need to go and get that looked at, sounds like the tooth is dying or has already died.
if you just leave it then you risk infection and loosing the tooth and other teeth. You may have a problem that caused this tooth to die that may affect the other teeth, so its worth getting checked out!
if you dont have enough money to go to a private dentist go and put your name down at the local hospital, government dentist etc

this usually happens if you had a filling or a root canal. Go see your dentist

Probably means the root is damaged and it is dying

The nerve in the tooth has suffered a trauma at some time and is dying or dead. The darkness you see is dried blood that has seeped into the tubules from the dying nerve of the tooth. About the only thing you can do now is have an elective RCT preformed, then a post and crown placed on the tooth. Your dentist may want to bleach the canal of the tooth prior to post placement to clean the dried blood from the tubules so there is less chance of this showing through an all porcelain crown. Hope I've been of some help with this. Actually I had to have this procedure done myself several years ago, did it while I was at work without any anesthetic since the tooth was dead. To this day I still have no idea what may have caused it to die. Good luck!
