Abstract
Non-vital tooth bleaching is a popular
cosmetic dental procedure aimed at enhancing the aesthetic appeal of
discoloured teeth. This abstract examines current knowledge on non-vital
bleaching techniques, emphasizing principles, materials, and clinical
procedures. The primary objective is to address intrinsic discoloration
stemming from pulp necrosis, trauma, or endodontic treatment. Commonly used
bleaching agents like hydrogen peroxide and sodium perborate, either alone or
combined, aim for satisfactory outcomes. Clinical protocols typically involve
applying the bleaching agent within the pulp chamber and sealing it to prevent
leakage. The effectiveness hinges on factors such as discoloration severity,
patient compliance, and treatment duration. While non-vital tooth bleaching can
significantly enhance dental aesthetics, clinicians must carefully manage risks
like cervical resorption and tailor treatments to individual patient needs.
Further research is needed to explore innovative bleaching techniques and
optimize outcomes in non-vital tooth bleaching.
