Internal Bleaching
Internal Bleaching
Not all tooth discoloration starts on the surface. Trauma or past dental work can sometimes cause a tooth to darken from within. We offer internal bleaching, a specialized whitening technique that restores a tooth's natural color after root canal therapy or injury. It’s a safe, effective way to bring uniform brightness back to your smile.
What Is Internal Bleaching?
Unlike traditional whitening treatments that target surface stains, internal bleaching is used to lighten a single, discolored tooth from the inside. This usually occurs when a tooth has darkened due to:
- Trauma or injury
- A past infection
- Root canal treatment
- Blood or pulp residue within the tooth
The process involves placing a gentle bleaching agent inside the tooth, allowing it to work from the inside out over the course of one or more visits
Who Is a Candidate for Internal Bleaching?
Internal bleaching is ideal for patients who have:
- One or more darkened teeth following root canal therapy
- Discoloration from injury that doesn’t respond to external whitening
- Healthy surrounding teeth and gums
- A desire to avoid more invasive cosmetic procedures
During your consultation, we’ll evaluate the tooth and confirm whether internal bleaching is the best option for you.
