A few weeks ago my gums became suddenly infected. Prior to this infection my gums were in good health and I had no issues. I am now left with this unsightly black triangle between my front two teeth. I talked to a dentist about fixing the issue with bonding and he told me that there's a chance the tissue may fill back in however it's been almost a week and no movement what so ever. Is bonding an appropriate approach or should I be looking into veneers?
