My friend fell on her face when she was young and it created yellow stains in her teeth. I heard bleaching can get rid of this, is that true?
Answer:
Internal bleaching could be done, that's done inside the tooth structure and in one dental visit, at the same time she would need to bleach the rest of her teeth (through bleach trays, laser or any other method offered by a dental professional) so that they will all have the same color. If this doesn't give the result expected by the patient then there are restorations as the ones mentioned above that could be used. Hope this helps!
Typically bleaching only whitens extrinsic stains (for example from coffee or colas) not intrinsic stain. However, bleaching her teeth may help make the stains less noticable. Your friend should talk to her dentist about whitening options and other options such as veneers or crowns (which would cover the natural tooth surface and eliminate the problem altogether).
no i am sorry, it doesnt..if she wants to get rid of these stains she could get tooth colored fillings(composite)to cover up the stains..has worked for patients ive worked on before:)
