Abstract Aim To discuss the causes and management of tooth crown discolouration following regenerative/revitalization endodontic therapy (RET) and to present the decision‐making process affecting three RET‐related cases of crown discolouration. Summary This case series outlines several approaches used in the management of post‐RET discolouration. The cases highlight the influence of the material used in creating a coronal seal on the choice and success of the management techniques provided. The first two cases highlight successful management of post‐RET discolouration through the use of internal–external bleaching. The use of internal bleaching in the third case was not recommended; therefore, external bleaching followed by a direct composite veneer was carried out.
