Internal Bleaching

The bleaching of discolored teeth is a regularly done cosmetic dentistry procedure performed by most general dentists at listed India Dental Clinic. The degree of color change that occurs during bleaching depends on the types of stains present, the peroxide dose, the amount of time on the teeth and how frequently it is performed. Some areas, including artificial dental crowns, dental veneers and the roots of the teeth, cannot be whitened by bleaching. Internal bleaching is the practical treatment option to lighten a discolored tooth that has had root canal therapy.
 

Internal bleaching is only an option for devitalized and root-canal-treated teeth. It involves placing a chemical oxidizing agent within the coronal portion of a tooth to remove discoloration.  The etiology of tooth discoloration can be intrinsic, extrinsic, or both; it can involve dentin, enamel, or pulp; it may be brought on by diet, age, or habits.
 

After root canal treatment, or endodontic surgery or Apicoectomy has been performed by dentist at dental clinic India, teeth have a tendency to discolor after some time and turn to darker shades of brown or grey caused by decomposition. This leads to a loss of aesthetics in the anterior region. Internal bleaching is the cure for this problem, often performed by recommended specialist like an Endodontist.
