What do u recommend for a discolored teeth with a veneer on it?

Q. I chipped both my front teeth in an accident when i was 11. Iam now 31, one of the teeth is badly discoloured it has a veneer on it but you can still see its dark, what would you recommend?

A. Probably root treatment of the dark tooth followed by internal bleaching.  Veneers may be required later but even if they are the colour matching will be easier

I’m sure it is possible in most cases however you need to see a cosmetic dentist to help you decide if this is the best treatment for you

My right lateral tooth was root canal filled many years ago and is also heavily filled. It has now darkened considerably compared to all other front teeth. I think my options to make it look nice again are: 1. Veneer? 2. Crown? Because of the filling I am presuming Crown is best option but what kind of Crown? Porcelain or metal with porcelain bonded on top? please advise. Thank you

It depends on the bite, you might also struggle to mask a very discoloured tooth with an all porcelain crown. I’m sure your dentist will know what will work best.
