My front tooth has turned grey following root canal treatment, what would you recommend for this problem?
Q.
Hello, I hope you are well, so here is my problem: I have a greying front tooth following root canal treatment, a few months ago. I have received conflicting information from several dentists when I have asked what to have done about it. Some of them have recommended that I have a veneer, others say I should try internal bleaching, or crown treatment. As it is my front tooth I want to be sure I select the best treatment, I understand that this is a cosmetic treatment so just wondered what you would personally recommend for this problem?

Thank you for your question. However, I would need to see you to give you options. If the tooth is darkening the first step should be to re root treat the tooth then you could integrally whiten the tooth and later have a veneer. It depends on how much tooth is left but re root treatment has to be the first step. I hope this helps.
