Dental bonding carries minimal risks as it preserves the integrity of your natural tooth, which remains almost completely intact under the bonding. Although the bonding material itself may chip or break over time, it can be easily repaired. One common concern voiced by patients is that dental bonding does not lighten with teeth whitening treatments. To address this, you may choose to undergo teeth whitening before getting dental bonding or have the bonding replaced to match the shade of your natural teeth after a whitening treatment.
If you have concerns about the durability of dental bonding, considering dental veneers or crowns may be beneficial. These options are stronger and have a longer lifespan compared to dental bonding.
