Hi
Discolouration of single tooth may be due to so many cause
**Stains
**Deposits
**Trauma which leads to pulp death
**Enamel hypoplasia
In case of stains and deposits you can go for scaling
In case of discoloration due to trauma then go for root canal treatment followed by capping
In case of Enamel hypoplasia and all go with veneers
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for further clinical examination and management
