What Is Dental Bonding?
During the dental bonding process, we mold a special composite resin over a tooth. The resin is shade-matched to blend in with the surrounding teeth, and we shape it in a way so that it covers imperfections in the tooth. It is similar to the material we use for tooth-colored fillings. Once it is in place, we harden it with a special light.
Dental bonding is a good way to fix a range of minor aesthetic flaws, including:
- Chips and cracks
- Discoloration
- Small gaps between the teeth
- And more!
Who Is a Good Candidate for Dental Bonding?
You might be a good candidate for dental bonding if:
- You wish to correct minor aesthetic imperfections in your teeth. Generally speaking, dental bonding is not used for major smile makeovers (veneers would likely be a better option for that). However, it can be suitable for enhancing the appearance of one or two teeth.
- Your teeth are healthy enough to support bonding. We will examine your mouth before moving forward with cosmetic services. You should not have any untreated cavities or gum disease.
- You are looking for an easy and cost-effective way to enhance your appearance. Bonding’s simple nature and relatively low cost make it attractive to many patients.
The Benefits of Dental Bonding
Dental bonding offers some truly outstanding benefits:
- The treatment process takes just one appointment. Depending on the number of teeth being treated, you may be in our office for an hour or less.
- Bonding is minimally invasive and painless.
- If you wish, bonding can be reversed.
- With proper care, the results of dental bonding may last for several years.
- Caring for bonding is pretty easy; thorough oral hygiene and reasonable eating choices are both important.
- The price of dental bonding starts out at just a few hundred dollars per tooth.
- Dental bonding is a versatile treatment that can address multiple imperfections at the same time.
