COSMETIC CARE
 

I have one dark tooth in the front. Will regular at-home bleaching makes it lighter?

First of all, the cause of the dark tooth must be determined. It could be due to an earlier trauma to the tooth or previous root canal treatment. In such a case external tooth whitening treatments may not help. Dr. Larry Lu may try internal bleaching which may take several sessions. If not, consider porcelain veneers, or capping the tooth to mask the darkness.
