Description
Avneet Kaur and co-authors measure how antibiotic pastes stain teeth and whether bleaching can undo the stain, in a 2025 lab study. Antibiotic pastes are packed into root canals to clear infection, but some mixes discolor the crown. The team used cut human front teeth and filled them with four paste variants or left them empty as controls. Color was read with a spectrophotometer over four weeks.
The classic triple paste with minocycline stained the most. A clindamycin variant stained the least by a clear margin. After the pastes were removed, an internal bleaching agent was placed for a week. The minocycline group's color bounced back the most from its stained state. The clindamycin group barely changed, since it had barely stained. The authors give dentists a ranked picture of staining risk by paste type.
