Is there a limit to how white dental bonding can be? (photo)

Asked By:DarStarZima in Virginia Beach, VA

This is the second time in a couple of months I've gotten bonding and my dentist told me he gave me the lightest color possible for bonding? How can this be? Why did he whiten them first then? In the photo you can see my concerns and especially because you can't whiten bonding. I'm so stressed out from this I've spent a total of 8 hrs in a dental chair with my mouth stretched open just to be disappointed. How can there not be a color that matches my teeth? My natural teeth are so much brighter
