Can anyone help? I had two teeth bonded; prior to that...
I had Britesmile. Now my teeth aren't as white...but will SOMETHING over the counter work to brighten even the bonding?

No, unfortunately. call up your dentist and ask them if they can go over them with a whiter composite.

Re: Can anyone help? I had two teeth bonded; prior to that...
yeah, I feel the same way. I have veneers and was told that unless I had them redone, there was no way to whiten them. I wish there was something though. I mean, they are still very white, but I want them movie star white lol

I know. It's a pain. Just so you know, I DID use those whitestrips (not knowing I couldn't use them; DUH to me), and they didn't work lol

I use a special toothpaste for my veneers it is called Super Smile. Not cheap but it does work on bonded and veneer teeth.

that's actually true. over-the-counter whiteners work by oxygenating your natural teeth because they are porous. veneers are not. they cannot be penetrated by whiteners.
any product that's being marketed to whiten veneers (other than actually painting them) is a crock

I am still going to try it. It's still way cheaper than having my teeth re-done!
FYI - you can order this on QVC.com! It's cheaper AND you have 30 days to return for a full refund!
