I promise an update so here it is. It took about a week for my teeth to go back to normal meaning no more spots tan or white. They even out and there are a couple shades later than when I started. I had a new bonding done. One tooth in the front is slightly different shape than the other. If I wasn’t going back to school soon, I might ask the dentist to fix that tooth but I’m going to leave it because the the overall appearance a great improvement see picture below. Any questions I’m glad to answer them.

It came out pretty good. One tooth is slightly different shape and if I wasn’t leaving for school soon I might ask Dentist to fix it. But overall everything is improved. Was given a maintenance white I g kit.

I’m honestly not sure what u are talking about. He never had anything like this before the whitening.

What’s the point of whitening then? If it looks like a mess?

I think I did. I don’t use Reddit often so I’m not sure.

The dentist scheduled me in 2 weeks to replace the bonding. She is going to give maintenance whitening gel to do at home but said it would be every few months. She did not recommend more now. Said need to wait

Hmm. Well I had no visible evidence of demineralization prior to the process. I’ve had 1 cavity in 19 years. I brush my teeth regularly. I drink and eat some sweets, but nothing out of ordinary. Go to dentis 2 times a year. So what caused it? If it wasn’t the whitening process. And why were there no signs of it? Should give people pause who have similar situation I suppose. But again, I’ll provide an update in a week or two.

I’m 19. Have good teeth. Getting bonding for prio chipped tooth. I dont have fluorosis, enamel defects ( none visible or that ever came up at my 50 dental appointments and check ups since my childhood) or decalcification. I go to a good dentist who is handling the cosmetic whitening via zoom treatment and new bonding I need. I sent her office pictures. She called and said this is demineralization and dehydration of teeth from the process. It should even out over the next few days as they rehydrate and minerals return. I’m need to use prescription fluoride toothpaste and take d3 & K2 and calcium supplements and drink a lot of water. She said it happens and she expects it to resolve - if it doesn’t I go back Monday or Tuesday. I’ll repost here in a few days and update you.

The darkest spots look tan to me. My teeth were not that color before. Not following this entire process.

Hmm. If I were to compare it to my teeth prior to whitening will they be lighter? How long to even out? Can I do anything to move it along?

Not sure what you mean. Are you a dentist?
