What can I do to ensure my bridge is the same shade as my teeth?

Q.
Dear Dr Moore, I am looking to have my teeth whitened but have a bridge where I lost a tooth playing football. What would I need to to ensure that my bridge is the same colour as my whitened teeth? Kidn regards,
A.
The bridge won’t change colour with tooth whitening. If the other teeth whiten dramatically you might need the bridge replaced

Yes but the bridge won’t change, you may need to change the bridge after the whitening if you get a dramatic change of colour
