Repair your Smile with Dental Bonding

Having have chipped, cracked, or discolored teeth, can create inhibitions when it comes to showing off your smile. Bonding is a simple solution that can help repair these chips, cracks and discoloration; unveiling a beautiful smile.
 

What Is Dental Bonding?

Dental bonding is a quick, easy and painless solution that repairs these problems and helps you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. It’s important to keep in mind that this process is not always as long lasting as porcelain crowns or veneers. However, bonding may be the right solution for your smile. This simple process can improve the appearance of your smile in as little as one visit. It is also one of the least expensive cosmetic dental procedures available. In most cases, anesthesia is not required and little prep is required. This procedure preserves more of your natural tooth, making it less invasive as other dental procedures.

Is Dental Bonding right for you?

Dental bonding is a instant solution for many dental problems, including the following:

• Chips and cracks
• Discoloration
• Misshapen teeth
• Gaps
• Tooth decay (dental bonding can be used a cosmetic alternative for metal fillings)

The Dental Bonding Process

A thin plastic material is applied by your dental professional on the front surface of your teeth. Afterwards, a composite resin that is carefully matched to the color of your teeth is chosen and applied (this is the bonding material that will be used.) An ultraviolet light or laser is then used to harden the material. After the material has been hardened, your cosmetic dentist will then sculpt and shape the material to create an unique smile that is perfect for you. The amount of time the procedure takes truly depends on the patient, but it can roughly take thirty minutes to an hour. More extensive bonding can take additional visits.

Advantages of Dental Bonding

There are numerous advantages to dental bonding, including:

• Easy process
• Can usually be done in one visit
• Relatively low cost
• Preserves more of your natural teeth
• In most cases, does not require the use of anesthesia
