dental bonding<\/a> any whiter. It will only make it look worse because it will whiten your natural teeth and won’t affect the color of the bonding.<\/p>\nIt’s possible that the bonding could be made to look better with a little polishing. If the discoloration of the bonding is from external stains and is not internal to the bonding material, it’s possible that the discoloration could be polished away by an expert cosmetic dentist.<\/p>\n
Otherwise, it would have to be replaced.<\/p>\n
If you’re short of money, it would be smart to wait. Don’t go looking for bargains in cosmetic dentistry, especially with dental bonding. It requires artistic talent to do that right, and most dentists don’t even have the materials on hand to do that right. We list several excellent cosmetic dentists in the Philadelphia area, and I would go to one of them if it matters to you how this looks.<\/p>\n
