Dear Dr. Hall,<\/p>\n
I chipped my two front teeth and had bonding done on them. Recently there was some discoloration of the bonding, so I asked my new dentist to fix the color. Things went downhill from there. There are multiple things wrong.<\/p>\n
The color is wrong<\/a>—the color is too white compared to the rest of my teeth. The bonding has a lot of texture, one tooth is longer than the other, and I now have a gap between the teeth<\/a>. After she was done the dentist said that it’s not perfect but it’s better than before. But my only issue was a small discoloration. Now, when I looked in the mirror, I was like, “What the heck happened here?”<\/p>\n So I asked her to shave down the longer tooth to make it the same length as the other one. (I’m shocked that I even had to ask that!) The next thing was that the shorter tooth wasn’t straight across—it rose up in the middle, so I asked if she would just file it to make it straight. Then I asked her to fix the color a little bit a the top and she said that\u2019s how normal teeth are with the different colors. Then I pointed out the large gap that wasn\u2019t there before and she said yea with bonding it\u2019s really hard to not have that. And then she said why don\u2019t you see how you like it for a couple days then come back on Friday and I can go over whatever you don\u2019t like. I have a good base to work with now. My question is should I let her try to fix it on Friday or just call her tomorrow and ask for refund. I feel bad because she is nice and all but this looks worse than it did when I went in. I\u2019m very upset!<\/p>\n Michelle from Florida<\/p>\n I found your blog searching for bonding issues.<\/p>\n (See Dr. Hall’s answer below.)<\/p>\n\n\n
