How does teeth bonding work?

I hear people say it cost this much "per tooth" to get your teeth bonded. How many teeth will the dentist bond in order to close a small gap between two front teeth? one or two
Answer:
Most likely two. They will fill the edges of them to meet in the middle. Make sure that if you are planning on whitening your teeth in the future to do it before the bonding since you will want the bonding to match the shade. If you whiten after bonding the natural teeth will whiten but the bonding won't. Good luck!

Perhaps just one. Keep in mind that you are fudging the anatomy of the tooth. If it doesn't look right with just one, you don't want that.
In order to keep the aesthetics good your Dr. will need to bond 2 teeth. He will fill half of the gap on one tooth and then fill half on the other one. Go for it, you'll be happy with the way you look!
