At age 15, patient had small "peg lateral" incisors which were built up to normal size with cosmetic bonding. 10 years later the bonding chipped on the left tooth, and both picked up staining and became darker than the surrounding teeth. The bonding was replaced with all porcelain crowns which never stain, so the color remains stable, and they are stronger (more fracture resistant).
