摘要

When conservative approaches are unsuccessful in addressing a single discoloured tooth, prosthetic management becomes essential. This often involves the application of indirect restorations, which provide both functional and aesthetic solutions. These restorations offer durability and improved outcomes, particularly when conservative treatments are inadequate. The integration of prosthetic techniques ensures optimal patient satisfaction and long-term success. This review is the second of a two-article series that will broadly discuss the prosthetic management and challenges faced when masking a single discoloured tooth, due to dark substrates of the crown and the root, and will examine various approaches encompassing veneers, composite veneers and crowns, and the types of cement and its effects. This review aims to highlight the challenges/variables faced when masking discoloured teeth and appraise possible prosthodontics techniques to address this.
