My teeth have been yellow since I was a child. My dentist says my enamel looks OK, but my teeth are SO sensitive! I've had my teeth whitened, but it never lasts long and really really hurts. I don't want veneers because I feel like they look fake and I don't want my already sensitive teeth shaved. Would tooth bonding help the color and sensitivity? Any other procedure suggestions?

I'm not sure of the extent that your dentist wants to bond your teeth. If the bonding is to fix a few small cavities, than have those done asap. If the bonding is done as a "veneer," let me share some information to help you with your decision. As you can see, your grinding habit...
Yes, that is possible. dentist can check that by xray. but sometimes its not possible to check by xray in such cases removal of existing filling is must.
