Asked By:liliananunez23 in Ridgewood, NJ

My number nine tooth is changing color it has a yellow tone and I was told that my tooth was either dead or dying because of a trauma. It doesn't have any cavities or decay. The dentists didn't mention anything about needing a root canal. Do I need need a root canal before I get the veneer or will I need it in the future after I get the veneer?
