A front tooth is necrotic and the tooth has turned black, but the tooth function is intact. Is it necessary to have porcelain veneer? What about light curing?

When the dental pulp is necrotic, the tooth will have no nutrition, so it will turn black, lose its luster and become brittle. Light-curing is a resin-based material that will age over time. Moreover, if the damage is large, light-curing will not be able to repair it and it will be easily damaged. A full crown restoration is recommended. There are metal porcelain and all-ceramic. If you have high requirements for the appearance of your front teeth, you can choose all-ceramic. Light curing is cheap, but porcelain is expensive.
