Hi I have recently bonded my front tooth and immediately it has taken on a grey translucent appearance. There was other bonding underneath but this is the first time this has happened. Does anyone know why? What can I do to make it white again? Thank you

Xochiquetzalli Bojorquez, DDS says:

Hello!Well the one in the previous part where your thread gets stuck if you go with your dentist because it ends up falling or getting food, maybe it's just very simple and you need to polish. You have very little with them. I do not think it's a big problem.Good luck! DDS Zalli Bojorquez

Would I be able to have composite bonding on both lateral incisors to lengthen them? (photos)
George Tsangaroulis, DDS says:

If your lateral incisors at one point before they wore were the same length as your centrals and you liked the appearance, then absolutely go for it.  Check some old photos of your smile to see.  However, in general lateral incisors are not the same length as centrals.

How can I "even" out the line of my bottom row of teeth? (Photo)
Neal Nealis, DDS (retired) says:

Certainly your teeth can be recontoured to get the front ones the same height. If you want the front and back teeth to be the same height, then you are looking at some orthodontics.
