Internal bleaching is a safe and effective cosmetic dental procedure designed to lighten the color of a single discolored tooth from within, restoring its natural appearance and helping you smile with confidence once again.
Internal bleaching, also known as tooth whitening from within, is a specialized dental procedure performed to address intrinsic tooth discoloration that cannot be effectively treated with traditional external whitening methods. This type of discoloration often occurs as a result of trauma, root canal treatment, or certain medications, causing the tooth to darken from the inside out.

Natural-Looking Results: With internal bleaching, we can lighten the color of your discolored tooth while preserving its natural translucency and vitality, resulting in a seamless and natural-looking smile.
Evaluation: During your initial consultation, one of our skilled endodontists will examine your discolored tooth and assess its suitability for internal bleaching. We’ll also discuss your goals and expectations for the procedure to ensure that it meets your needs.
Preparation: Before the bleaching procedure begins, we’ll carefully isolate the affected tooth from the surrounding teeth and soft tissues to prevent the bleaching agent from coming into contact with healthy tooth structure or gums.
Bleaching Treatment: A bleaching agent, typically hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, is placed inside the tooth and sealed in position. The bleaching agent is left in place for a specified period, allowing it to penetrate the tooth structure and lighten the discoloration.
Monitoring and Adjustment: Throughout the bleaching process, our endodontist will monitor the progress of the treatment and make any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal results. Once the desired level of whitening is achieved, the bleaching agent is removed, and the tooth is sealed to prevent re-staining.
