Dental Bonding
If you have minor cosmetic issue with your teeth that you’d like to correct, you might want to consider dental bonding. This versatile cosmetic dentistry procedure is an effective way to correct:
- Small chips
- Mild crookedness
- Cavities
- Stains or discoloration that has been resistant to tooth whitening
- Gaps between teeth
- Unevenly sized teeth
Dental bonding can be completed in one office visit. Your cosmetic dentist will apply a tooth-colored resin to your teeth. A special light will be used to harden the resin material, bonding it to your tooth. Your dentist will then polish the material to give it a beautiful shine.
You will experience several important benefits by choosing dental bonding to address your cosmetic dentistry needs:
- There is no need for your restoration to be fabricated in a dental lab, enabling the procedure to be completed in just one office visit
- Less natural tooth structure is removed than with other restorations such as dental crowns or porcelain veneers
- No anesthesia is required
- It is the easiest and most affordable cosmetic dentistry option
For these reasons, dental bonding is often included as part of a smile makeover.
Please contact a cosmetic dentist in your area today to learn more about dental bonding.
