Tooth Bonding Recovery for Stained Teeth: Keeping Your Smile Bright
Some tooth stains just refuse to budge. Whether it’s deep fluorosis marks from childhood, stubborn antibiotic tetracycline bands, or old trauma that turned a tooth grey, professional teeth whitening gels cannot always lift the colour.
That is where composite bonding shines we paint an ultra-thin layer of tooth-coloured resin over the discolouration to mask it completely.
What is recovery like after having stained teeth bonded?
While modern composite resin is cured rock-hard under our blue light, the microscopic surface polish is most receptive to dark dyes in the first two days. Here is what we tell our patients at Envy Smile:
– Stick to pale ‘white diet’ foods steamed chicken, rice, pasta, creamy potatoes, and water. Avoid black Americanos, builder’s tea, red wine, and turmeric curries for forty-eight hours.
– If you drink cold tea or coffee after the first two days, use a straw to bypass your front teeth.
-Don’t use abrasive charcoal toothpastes, which create micro-scratches that attract surface stains.
At Envy Smile in Shepherd’s Bush, single tooth bonding starts from £150. Call 020 3719 6889 to book your smile assessment.
