Can baking soda whiten bonded teeth?

I am a 33 year old male. I wonder if baking soda can whiten bonded teeth?

Baking soda is abrasive and can remove stains on bonded teeth. It will also take away the sheen on the bonding. The best treatment is to see your dentist and polish off the stains and repolish the bonding.

Unfortunately, baking soda does not whiten bonded teeth (composite filling). Please see your dentist to replace the old filling if the shade/color does not match your cosmetic need/expectation.
Nothing can whiten bonding on teeth. Only natural tooth structure can be whitened.
