What Is Intracoronal Bleaching?
Intracoronal bleaching, also known as internal bleaching, is a dental procedure used to whiten teeth from the inside, specifically those that have undergone root canal therapy. Prime Endodontics employs this method to address discoloration caused by internal factors rather than external stains, which are typically targeted by regular teeth whitening treatments. The procedure not only enhances the aesthetic appearance of teeth but can also improve the well-being of patients by refreshing the natural look of their smile without altering the tooth's external structure. Schedule a consultation with our Kirkland, WA team to learn more about how this procedure can re-brighten discolored teeth.
How Does Intracoronal Bleaching Work?
Intracoronal bleaching involves placing a bleaching agent inside a tooth that has previously been treated with a root canal. The process starts by sealing the tooth's root canal to prevent the bleaching agent from affecting the root. The bleaching agent, typically a form of peroxide, is then carefully applied inside the tooth in the area that was previously discolored. Over time, this agent works to remove all stains, improving esthetics and its overall appearance. The treatment may need to be repeated to achieve the desired shade.
What Are the Benefits of Intracoronal Bleaching?
Intracoronal bleaching is a specialized dental procedure at Prime Endodontics that offers several advantages, particularly for teeth that have become discolored following root canal treatment. This technique helps restore the natural appearance of teeth by addressing internal stains effectively and offering the following advantages:
- Aesthetic improvement
- Noninvasive procedure

Prime Endodontics Reviews
Diagnosis and treatment in the same day. Saved me an extra trip to the dentist by completing a filling that I also needed. Also, provided lots of Novacain for a pain-free experience!!!
I was told by another Endodonist that they couldn't do the procedure that I needed to save the bridge I have. I got a second opinion with Prime and Dr Nawari did the procedure successfully. I'm so happy!! Everyone is so kind and friendly. I would highly recommend them.
The best dentistry I have ever experienced. I was so relaxed i almost fell asleep during a root canal!
Fantastic staff and doctor. Made my daughter’s procedure seamless and painless.
It's the best medical practice I've ever seen.
