Re: bonding for fluorosis

If you get bonding, it will last only a few years before it starts looking worn. Then the next thing that your dentist may recommend is veneers. It's very difficult to match other front teeth in color, so he/she may recommend to get all the front teeth veneered. Veneers will not last forever either and every 15 or so years you may be shelling out to get them redone. I'm not trying to scare you, but I wish that someone had told me all of this when I was your age. I really wanted normal looking teeth and if I knew where I'd end up I never would have started. Also be aware that you may not like the results. It happens. I'm not saying not to get your teeth done because it CAN help with your confidence level. Just know what you're getting into.
