Combining treatment modalities for tetracycline-discolored teeth

Abstract:
Tetracycline-discolored teeth that are to be restored by porcelain laminate veneers present a clinical challenge. Successfully bleaching such teeth prior to veneering will permit the clinician and technician to overcome the technical difficulties associated with masking dark teeth. This article describes a combined treatment modality in which the teeth are bleached after the preparation for porcelain laminate veneers.
