I am considering getting the laser tooth whitening treatment for my teeth but i got a root canal treatment!?

Help! I really want to get a whitening treatment.. but I had a root canal treatment in one of my front teeth and now its becoming more discolored. :(

Is the whitening treatment still recommended? Please help. I really hate it that I had to have a root canal treatment.. it made my tooth discolored and a part chipped off already :(
Whitening will not help your rct tooth. Your tooth is discolored because it is dead, there is no nerve anymore. You can bleach your other teeth and then get a crown to match. If it is chipped, you probably need a crown anyway.
