Why does a tooth change color after a nerve extraction?

Author: Reyus Mammadli

Answer: A tooth after a nerve extraction changes color only if poor-quality filling materials were used, or if the treatment was not performed correctly. Modern classical endodontics (the science of root canal treatment) provides protocols in which the tooth does not change color after extraction.
