>My black triangles at the gum line came too fast and got too big to be reproxed. I am de-braced and still have them, but they seem to be filling in a tiny bit, gradually, without the pressure of the braces. I have 4 on top and 6 on the bottom. I have read that bonding is hard to match the color of your teeth and won't whiten or stain as teeth do, so there is always a problem with its showing, plus it wears away and has to be re-done. So I am just living with the holes and praying the gum will fill itself in since it is healthy and well-cared-for. From this forum, I understand that usually the spaces are small enough that the reproxing works very well.
