Abstract
Internal bleaching technique is a common treatment option for discolored non-vital anterior teeth, but it is not advisable for cases with internal cervical resorption. Therefore, other conservative bleaching techniques, such as external bleaching, may be proper treatment options in this situation. Remaining discoloration should be covered by restorative options. The best choice for conservative restorations is ceramic laminate because of color stability, biocompatibility and durable esthetics. This clinical report presents the treatment of two severely discolored non-vital maxillary incisors with internal resorption in a 25-year-old man. A step-by-step practice is proposed for bleaching and restorative treatments of these discolored teeth are described.
