2017-07-04 06:52:54
Due to injury (16 years ago)my front teeth got broke into half. Dentist did RCT and capped it. There is no issue of swelling, tooth decaying , bleeding etc. Doing proper dental care.nw tooth started into black . Any solution to convert the original half tooth into white as cap is still in its same color. Is veneer is great solution or any other.

RCT makes your tooth dead. So it changes colour. Since it had fractured earlier, they would have given you a tooth coloured cement. The original tooth alone would have changed colour. Its best to for a crown rather than a veneer. A zirconium or ceramic crown

You might have got PFM- porcelain fused to metal cap (ceramic) on your front tooth... because of which at the neck of the tooth the blackish margin of inside metal is seen. You will have to get the Zirconia cap (metal free ceramic) done on your tooth.
Next Steps
Replace pfm cap to metal free i. e. Zirconia cap.
