Conference summary
Whitening endodontic teeth is a challenge for the clinician. Changes in the biological processes of dental tissues can initially contribute to changing tooth color. In turn, subsequently, whitening products alter not only the value of tooth color but also other color parameters, such as opalescence, translucency and bloom.
In the phase of rehabilitation of lost tissues, we have several materials available, including composite resins. In this conference we will discuss the changes in the color parameters of the bleached endodontic tooth and the operative dentistry solutions available.
