Re: discoloured tooth

I think you can have it bleached. When I had a root canal on a front tooth that had already turned grey the dentist put something inside the tooth after he finished the root canal that turned it whiter than the other teeth. Although that was more than 30 yrs ago I am pretty sure they can still do the same thing or something similar.
