What is Dental Bonding?
Do you have chips, cracks, stubborn stains, or somewhat misshapen teeth that detract from your appearance? If so, you might benefit from dental bonding. Although it can vary depending on your unique circumstances, this service can often be completed from start to finish in a single visit.
This procedure involves applying color-matched, putty-like composite resin directly to your teeth to cover problem areas and/or fill in lost sections of enamel, hiding or fixing flaws. Once placed, the material is then hardened with an ultraviolet curing light, allowing it to bond with your enamel. The resulting repair can potentially last for 5 to 10 years or more if properly cared for.
Who is a Good Candidate for Dental Bonding?
Although dental bonding is a versatile solution that can address one or multiple concerns, that doesn’t automatically mean it’s the right treatment to meet everyone’s unique needs. Before proceeding, you must consult one of our providers to ensure you’re a good candidate. If we find any signs of cavities or gum disease, we’ll address those concerns first.
Then, after we examine your teeth and discuss your smile goals, our team can devise an appropriate treatment plan. If your enamel has suffered more severe decay or injuries, you might require a different service, like a customized dental crown, to restore your tooth’s appearance and functionality instead.
The Benefits of Dental Bonding
There are several advantages of getting dental bonding, including:
- Minimally invasive option. This option typically doesn’t require needles or numbing, and it is usually considered minimally invasive.
- Versatile treatment. This service can be used to address a single issue or multiple flaws simultaneously.
- Easy maintenance. Keeping it in good shape is as easy as brushing and flossing twice daily and visiting our team every six months for a routine checkup and cleaning.
- Cost-effective. This procedure addresses many similar issues to porcelain veneers, usually at a lower price.
- Boosted confidence. The customizable materials are made to match your natural enamel seamlessly.
