Can a black tooth be saved?
I am a 47 year old male. One of my teeth is black from the inside. Can a black tooth be saved?

Black tooth usually indicates that the tooth has no viable nerve and may need a root canal and crown to restore it. Only an X-ray of the tooth can verify if the tooth can be saved.
Sometimes it depends on how much decay is in the tooth. Please call a dentist ASAP before the tooth gets infected and hurts you. We only live once. We have the choice to make today a great day.
As long as it's not fractured, of course.
You have to see a dentist. A discolored tooth can be caused by a few different problems.
