Curious as to why are my teeth roots going brown very fast?

Hard to say...: Could be decay, could be staining. A consultation with your local dentist will get you a definitive answer and the appropriate care.

Roots are: Generally more yellow or brown in color compared to the clinical crown (tooth portion). The texture of the root is also not smooth like enamel and can stain easily - coffee, tobacco etc. Best to check with your dentist however. Hope this helps.
