No in fact bonding is commonly done to make teeth look straighter
Not usually, but in some cases it may benefit to have straight teeth for composites on the front teeth.
No, sometimes you can make teeth look straighter with bonding.
Hello,

Not necessarily. Part of the purpose for such bonding is to make crooked teeth look straighter. In 40 years' practice experience, porcelain laminate veneers typically give a superior result,
last longer, and are less likely to stain or chip off.
Good luck!
