Abstract
Traumatic dental injuries most commonly occur to the maxillary central incisors, occasionally
resulting in tooth discoloration and prompting affected patients to seek dental treatment.
Other negative sequelae of trauma to teeth include root resorption that can complicate
definitive treatment planning to manage discoloration. This article describes the
conservative esthetic management of discolored traumatized teeth through the inside/outside
bleaching technique after endodontic therapy for external inflammatory root resorption.
