What Procedure Will It Take for my Chipped Tooth to Look Normal Under a Black Light Again?

marinakisn1
I had my #9 tooth chipped nearly in 1/2 at 20 I'm looking for a more permanent fix. I want to do as little damage as possible considering my age. I have very healthy natural teeth and a great smile. This tooth picks up different light and becomes very obvious to the naked eye. I know the root was exposed and a direct pulp was performed due to the exposure. I work under a black light and the damage is horrific. What procedure will make my teeth look natural under a black light and all lights?
