hello, you need to visit a dentist and get it checked. get an x-ray done if required. if there is a cavity, you need to get it filled. if there is infection to the root of the tooth, you need to get it treated.

consult a dentist near you , get an x-ray done, if the cavity is not deep then it can be filled, but if it's deep then you have to get RCT done followed by capping.

Please get a dental xray done to determine causes of change in colour. Treatment can be a filling or a root canal supported by a tooth coloured crown.

It is probably decay. Get an X Ray done. If the decay is very deep then root canal treatment may be required. If not just a filling would be sufficient.
Next Steps
Get an X Ray done
