I coming close to the end of my braces adventure (or so I hope--no date yet).
I have a black triangle between my top two front teeth. My orthodontist did some IPR but is hesitant about doing more because my front teeth would proportionally look too small. It's pretty noticeable.
My dentist suggested cosmetic bonding but I don't know the pros and cons other than the general info I can find on the internet. Biggest concern I have is staining potential over time.
Any staining was due to what I ate and my hygiene habits!! They were able to match the teeth VERY well. The ortho didn't think I had that much bonding done, he couldn't tell.
