Why Some Dentists Are Afraid of Taking my Bonding Off?

June 9, 2011
Asked By:nana2011 in New York

I want to take off new bonding done on my teeth so that I could close my gaps with braces. My orthodontic sent me to my dentist to take the bonding off and my dentist said the doctor that put it on should take off. I am afraid. Is there anything I should know about taking off bonding? Isn't it supposed to be a reversible procedure? I had it as result of Invisalign IPR left over and the dentist bonded them. I hate the way they look and want to close them with braces.
