Laser whitening of a devitalized discolored tooth not associated with the gel containing hydrogen peroxide: A case report

Abstract

The color of the teeth is considered an important aspect for having a beautiful smile and improving the aesthetic appearance. Quick teeth whitening has become one of the most requested dental procedures in our society. The laser has been considered the most valuable energy for teeth whitening. The main advantage of laser whitening is that it can be completed in a single studio treatment and allows you to focus on a single tooth or even a selected part of a tooth. The aim of this study was to evaluate the whitening effect of the 810 nm laser light, without the addition of hydrogen peroxide gel, on a devitalized and dyschromic dental element with aesthetic value.
