How to prevent tooth discoloration which undergone root canal?

Not much: You should really ask a dentist, but here's what little I know. Avoid red wine, coffee, colored drinks. You can always use whiteners or bleaches, but may not be the best for your teeth. You could also get a cap. Hope that helps.

You can't: after root canal, the tooth will get discolored cause the nerve and blood supply is removed. for esthetic reasons, you need to see a dentist to find out the best possible cosmetic look for you. you can send me x-rays and a photo for a second opinion. http://my.setmore.com/bookingpage/72b8c781-a64f-45c9-9314-934abdd25118

Impossible: The teeth that undergo root canal treatment may darken or change the shade.
