Have you had one of your front teeth turn black, or if  you have a dark tooth after root canal? At our dental practice, we offer professional internal tooth whitening (also called internal bleaching) to help brighten the appearance of a single discoloured, dark tooth without using crowns or veneers in many instances. If you’re wondering why your tooth appears darker, there are several reasons for tooth discoloration, including previous root canal therapy; injury or trauma to the tooth; dead nerves inside the tooth; older fillings; and intrinsic staining.

Discolourations of teeth tend to originate from within the tooth; hence, regular teeth whitening treatment will not resolve the problem in these instances.

Internal Tooth Whitening, What is it?

Internal tooth whitening simply stands for internal bleaching dentist UK, non-vital tooth whitening, walking bleach tooth treatment or bleach root canal tooth  Internal tooth whitening is a specialised form of teeth whitening used to whiten a non-vital or root-treated tooth from within, rather than whitening the outer surfaces of the teeth with a whitening product. Internal bleaching involves placing a whitening agent inside the tooth to gradually restore its natural, even colour.

Techniques used for internal whitening 
  1. The walking bleach technique: the bleaching gel is placed inside of the tooth and stays there for a few days, and you will need to return to the dentist to have it cleaned out and replaced till a desired shade is achieved.
  2. Inside-outside bleaching: the gels and special trays are given to you, and you do the whitening yourself for the instructed time till you return to the dentist. This technique uses milder bleaching gels compared with the above technique.

Frequently Asked Questions By Customers

Find quick answers to the most common questions about dental hygiene, professional teeth cleaning, stain removal, deep cleaning, sensitivity and gum health.

Gum pain and teeth cleaning after cleaning is very rare, but obviously, they can be slightly tender. If this is the case, you should seek our professional advice; we are happy to discuss ways to help minimise discomfort. 

Simply brushing twice a day, flossing and maintaining good home care will help to keep your teeth bright and shiny. You can consult your dentist or hygienist on how to brighten them up and maybe use stain removal. 

The easiest way to remove smoking stains is to have a professional dental hygiene appointment near me for stain removal (this is sometimes called “Airflow”) .

The teeth cleaning does not whiten teeth - it just brightens them up, which makes a huge difference to appearance.

Deep dental cleaning does not hurt. If it is uncomfortable, our dental hygienist or dentist can make it comfortable by giving a small dose of anaesthetic. 

Dental cleaning itself does not cause gum recession. However, ageing and gum inflammation due to plaque and calculus buildup can cause gingival recession.
