What is internal bleaching
with an endodontist?

Internal bleaching is a specialized teeth whitening procedure performed on a tooth that has been discoloured, usually due to a root canal treatment or trauma. The procedure is executed from the inside of the tooth, and an endodontist, who is an expert in treating the inside of the tooth, typically carries it out.

How does internal bleaching differ from regular teeth whitening?

While traditional whitening treatments focus on external tooth surfaces, internal bleaching targets discolouration from within the tooth. It’s specifically designed for teeth that have undergone endodontic treatments.

FAQs

Why might a tooth need internal bleaching?

Teeth that have had a root canal treatment or experienced trauma might darken over time. This discoloration is from inside the tooth, so regular external bleaching techniques might not be effective.

How is the internal bleaching procedure carried out?

  1. The endodontist accesses the inside of the tooth, typically through the opening created during the root canal procedure.
  2. The internal surface is cleaned to remove any debris or discolouring agents.
  3. A whitening agent is applied inside the tooth.
  4. The tooth is sealed temporarily, allowing the bleaching agent to work.
  5. After a determined period, the endodontist will remove the temporary seal and evaluate the tooth’s colour. If satisfactory results are achieved, the tooth is permanently sealed; otherwise, the procedure may be repeated.

Is the procedure safe?

Yes, when performed by a skilled endodontist like those at Serio Dental, internal bleaching is safe. We ensure that the bleach does not harm the surrounding tissues and that the tooth is sealed correctly to prevent future complications.

How long do the results last?

Results can vary depending on individual circumstances. However, with proper care, the whitened appearance can last for years. It’s crucial to maintain regular dental check-ups and practice good oral hygiene.
