Why are my crowns turning grey after a root canal 1 month ago?

The root canal and crowns I had one month ago are beginning to turn grey. They are also very tender and after I floss they really hurt.

I have no idea why a porcelain crown would turn grey. A tooth will turn grey when it's dead. I'd go back to your dentist to have him/her investigate.
