How Can Discoloration Of Teeth Be Treated?

I have a big hole in the top of one of my front teeth and a small one next to it on the other front teeth. The bigger one is now looking blue-ish blackish and IDK how to fix it. I am only 16, my smile and teeth are still young. I already had a tooth pulled out, is that the only way now?

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have discolored tooth in front region and hole also it can be
due to if tooth is non vital then bluish discoloration is seen .

For this you should consult dentist and go for visual examination , if tooth is carious then go for IOPA x ray to evaluate exposure of pulp , and go for pulp testing to evaluate if it is non vital .

Consult dentist as early as possible.

Hope this will help you.
