Teeth bonding + not matching?

I had a tooth bonded and the color does not match the rest of my teeth. I went in to get it fixed, yet the tooth is still slightly yellowish in color. Dentist said that my tooth was too yellow and that the resin material used could not make the tooth any whiter since the tooth was way too yellow. Has this ever happend to anyone before, and if so, what alternatives did you take to make the tooth whiter since bonded teeth cannot be bleached, whitened, etc.? Did you end up getting veneers? My dentist suggested veneers. I am afraid that the veneer is unable to cover my "too yellow tooth" and make it match my other teeth which are much whiter than the bonded tooth. Also, once an enamel is shaved to put the veneer on, will the dentist have to continue to shave the enamel every time a veneer needs to be replaced? Any information would be helpful. Thank you!

This is what I do in my practice.





First the patient gets their teeth bleached to bring the color up to where they want them to be overall.


Next, we do either a veneer or a full porcelain crown (if the tooth has been broken down) and match it to the new, whiter shade.


This is very predictable. Trying to match up shades with composite material when completely bonding a tooth that is yellow underneath can be tricky at best.
Reply:Your dentist needs to use the shade that matches all your teeth. He may not have the shade that matches all your teeth. That is why he is suggesting veneers.





If I were you, I would get a tooth whitening procedure done. So in the future, when the dentist provides the veneer that matches your teeth that are whiter, you wouldn't have to be embarrassed by the yellow tooth color. The color would be even and your smile will not make you feel self-conscious.





If you are not satisfied, you are more than free to see a different dentist. There are so many out there.
