Right "fang" tooth is turning a gray-ish color and i am getting a lot of pain that is causing headaches. what is going to happen? will it fall out?

Canine: If the tooth is turning grey, it means the nerve in the tooth has died. That's why you're in pain.. the dead tissue is releasing toxins into your bone. You need root canal therapy, and you need it NOW. Delaying treatment will only make matters worse, so call today for an appointment. Feel better soon...

Gray tooth: Sounds like a large cavity and possible abcess. See your dentist for an examination and treatment. Delaying treatment will only cause it to get worse.
