The teeth frequently become discolored in time due to the endodontic treatment residues in the pulp chamber or hemolytic products accumulated in the dentine tubules after trauma. This condition may cause psychosocial problems for patients. Nonvital bleaching has gained popularity due to its conservative nature and low cost to overcome this unpleasant condition. This article will give an overview of nonvital bleaching techniques: materials and regimens used, bleaching procedure and side-effects.
