Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is an innovative cosmetic solution designed to reshape and enhance your smile using composite resin. This procedure is perfect for those who seek to improve the aesthetics of their smile without the high costs and invasiveness of orthodontics or veneers. With dental bonding, you can quickly and affordably fix chipped or uneven teeth, boosting your self-confidence. One of the great advantages of bonding is that it typically requires just a single appointment and doesn't need any anesthesia.
Although bonding will gradually wear and may discolor over time, necessitating replacement, it is known for its durability, lasting several years on average.
Why Opt for Cosmetic Bonding?
- Seal spaces or gaps
- Repair chipped teeth
- Treat decayed teeth (cavities)
- Elongate unevenly shaped teeth
- Safeguard roots revealed by receding gums
- Revitalize badly discolored teeth
What Happens During Dental Bonding?
The process starts with the dentist isolating the teeth that need treatment, followed by etching them to prepare for bonding. A conditioning liquid is then applied, creating micro crevices on the tooth surfaces that enhance the adherence of the bonding agent.
Subsequently, the dentist applies a bonding resin to anchor the composite securely. After adding several layers of tooth-colored composite, the material is shaped and hardened using a specially calibrated light. Once the bonding is complete, the surface is smoothed, buffed, and polished to seamlessly blend with your natural teeth.
