Well, can someone recommend a dentist that can do this? Mine doesn't seem to know what he's doing lol, he just keeps trying to give me teeth whitening gel for the outside. TBH I am not even sure I needed the root canal in the first place but it's too late for that now.

Once you have a root canal done, it really cuts off the blood supply to the teeth and as such it can become brittle and the colour of the tooth will darken. You should have a crown done over that tooth and they will match the colour for you.
