DARK ROOT CANAL TEETH
This woman’s two front teeth received root canal treatment years earlier.
Over time they had become dark. She also wanted to get rid of her “pointy” canines and rounded lateral incisors.
Before
After
By making two all ceramic crowns for her central incisors and placing four porcelain veneers on the lateral incisors and canines, her smile was restored.
This chapter from Amazing Smiles Through Cosmetic Dentistry explains or demonstrates dark root canal teeth as part of Dr. Albert J. Kurpis’s broader cosmetic dentistry approach to improving smile balance, appearance, and confidence.
The right treatment depends on the condition of the teeth, gums, bite, facial balance, smile goals, and a professional examination. Similar-looking smile problems may require different solutions.
Cosmetic dentistry is designed to improve the appearance of the teeth and smile. For many patients, a more balanced and attractive smile can also improve confidence in social, personal, and professional situations.
