LOPES, Ana Claudia Dall Evedove; MATEO-CASTILLO, José Francisco; NEVES, Lucimara Teixeira das and PINTO, Lidiane de Castro. Results of mixed and immediate bleaching techniques for bleaching endodontically treated teeth - case reports. Odontoestomatología [online]. 2021, vol.23, n.37, e402. Epub Apr 30, 2021.

Introduction:
The darkening of a single anterior tooth negatively affects the smile's appearance, and several factors may cause this darkening.
Objective:
To describe the mixed and immediate bleaching techniques by reporting two clinical cases.
Case 1:
A male individual with Treacher Collins Syndrome. He complained of chromatic alteration in tooth 33, which was verified on clinical examination. X-ray imaging showed satisfactory endodontic treatment. Internal bleaching was performed with the mixed technique.
Case 2:
A male individual with Apert Syndrome reported chromatic alteration in tooth 22, observed on clinical examination. X-ray imaging showed unsatisfactory endodontic treatment. Endodontic retreatment was performed. Six months later, internal whitening was performed immediately.
Conclusion:
The use of mixed and immediate whitening techniques restores the smile’s harmony, the tooth’s ideal color, and patients’ self-esteem.
Keywords : Non-vital tooth; bleaching agents; endodontics.
