About the speaker: Co-authored the first publication in the world on Nightguard vital bleaching (at-home bleaching) with Dr. Harald Heymann in 1989, and has research, over 135 publications and a book on bleaching.

Description:
Single dark teeth can be an indication of other pathology, and treatment options vary whether vital or non-vital. Bleaching a single dark tooth is very cost-effective for a patient compared to other options. This course will also go over the treatment options for non-vital teeth that have received endodontic therapy as well as those that have not. Esthetic evaluations, bonding insights and special tray fabrication designs will be explained.

Learning objectives:
Participants will be able to:

• Learn the treatment options for single dark teeth, vital and non-vital
• Learn the treatment options for non-vital teeth that have received endodontic therapy and those that have not
• Understand the bonding techniques for restoration of endodontic access openings for root color, and tray fabrication techniques for bleaching
• Review esthetic evaluations needed for non-vital discolored teeth
