Tooth Bonding Recovery for Discoloured Teeth: Aftercare & Masking Tips<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

Having one grey or discoloured tooth in the middle of your smile can make you self-conscious in pictures. Whether that dark shade came from childhood medicine or an old knock on the football pitch that injured the nerve, regular whitening kits won’t budge it. Covering that tooth with an opaque coat of composite resin masks the darkness in under an hour.<\/p>\r\n

In our London practice, masking a discoloured tooth starts from \u00a3150 per tooth.<\/p>\r\n

Once you leave our surgery, what is recovery actually like?<\/h3>\r\n

To put it plainly: there is virtually zero physical recovery. Because bonding preserves your virgin enamel and doesn’t involve gum surgery, you won’t suffer from throbbing aches or tender gums.<\/p>\r\n

Your newly polished composite resin needs about forty-eight hours to cure completely against strong pigments. Sticking to lighter comfort meals like pasta, jacket potatoes, steamed chicken, and porridge for the first two days keeps the new shade sparkling.

Hold off on black espresso, builder’s tea, and red wine until Monday morning. When you brush, use a smooth daily fluoride toothpaste rather than gritty charcoal pastes.<\/p>\r\n
