Tuesday, January 18th, 2011Can my front four discoloured teeth be whitened, despite having root canal treatment in the past?
Tuesday, January 18th, 2011Q.
I have root canal on my 4 top teeth about 5 years ago and they are very discoloured,especially the front 2..I am worried about a couple of things 1) I spoke to my very young recently qualified dentist about having them whitened and she said no prob..But when I was researching online I read teeth that have had root canal can’t be whitened..Also I read that root canal teeth should have a crown on them straight away as they could snap and break at any time,I had the root canal done at 2 different dentists..and neither of the dentists mentioned anything..I am now petrified my teeth are going to break at any moment..Any advice please?
What ortho treatment would you recommend to close gaps?

I’ve several gaps on my lower left teeth caused by tooth removal, due to over crowding when i was younger.
What treatment would be better, fixed braces or invisilign?
I’d also like to know if a few small chips on my two front teeth could be repaired? Again, which would be better, white fillings or bonding?

I have to have one of my front teeth extracted, I’ll have to wear a denture for three months whilst the gum heals and then I’m opting for an implant.
