Can I use a teeth whitener like crest white strips?<\/p>\n<p>Thanks, Carlie<\/p>\n<p>Dear Carlie,<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Dental Bonding\" href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/porcelain_crowns.html\">Dental bonding <\/a>will not bleach at all. In regards to crest white strips it will lighten your teeth somewhat however it is just temporary and your teeth will go back to their natural color within several months. We recommend that if you want to have a more permanent color change in your teeth to have them professionally bleached at your dental office either with the take home bleach trays or with in office <a title=\"Zoom Whitening\" href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/zoom_whitening.html\">ZOOM Whitening<\/a>. After you have your teeth bleached you can have your dental bonding replaced to match your new tooth color, however dental bonding gets darker over time. Your best option would be to either have <a title=\"Porcelain Veneers\" href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/porcelain_veneers.html\">porcelain veneers<\/a> or <a title=\"Porcelain Crowns\" href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/porcelain_crowns.html\">porcelain crowns <\/a>which won\u2019t change color and look very natural next to your normal teeth. This is considered a cosmetic procedure and most dental plans do not pay for cosmetics however if your dental bonding is wearing away and very little tooth structure is left you can have your dentist send a preauthorization to your dental insurance to see if they will cover the cosmetic procedure.<\/p>\n<p>Post courtesy of Dr. Malone,\u00a0<a title=\"Cosmetic Dentist\" href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/\">Lafayette Louisiana Cosmetic Dentist<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have my two front teeth bonded.
