Visitor asks:
Dear Dr Rotar,
I have a problem with the upper lateral incisor. The tooth is non-vital and therefore grey in colour. I would like to know how this can be corrected. Once, I think, my previous dentist injected some substance with a syringe that was supposed to whiten the inside of the tooth so that it would become white again. Is this possible and how much would it cost? Does this reduce the quality or strength of the tooth in any way?
Thank you for your time and have a nice day.

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:
Dear Sir/Madam!
The problem described is best resolved by making a root post and an artificial dental crown. Bleaching alone does not achieve the desired effect, and in addition it carries a risk of fracture of the dental crown and perhaps even loss of the tooth. Price of the proposed procedure:
-30 Eur (post)
-210 Eur (metal-ceramic crown) or
-350 Eur (all-ceramic crown).
Have a nice day!
