Bonding is a tooth whitening system employed by dentists to modify the color and shape of your teeth through the use of a composite resin that they mold over yourteeth. The resin, however, is said to stain and even chip in the long run. Bonding will set you back between $300-$700.
Porcelain veneers are like resin molds in that they are molded and bonded onto stained teeth. They can be shaped in such a way so as to lengthen as well as lighten the appearance of teeth. It usually takes two trips to the dentist to have veneers fully installed on yourteeth. The tooth whitening cost is high too – a porcelain veneer averages $700-$1200 per tooth.
