Can bonded teeth be whitened?
Sort of. When you whiten or bleach a tooth that has a composite resin restoration bonded to it the natural tooth itself will bleach and lighten in color. The part of the tooth that is composite resin or bonding will not change color it is generally inert to whitening agents. If the contrast between the newly whitened tooth structure and the old darker composite presents a cosmetic challenge the most common and least invasive solution is to replace the bonded composite restoration to match the natural tooth color. Hope that helps. READ MORE
