Bondings

Dental bonding is typically used for cosmetic purposes. This non-invasive treatment involves applying a tooth-colored resin to the surface of your teeth to restore your smile. It’s designed to improve the appearance of chipped, stained, or gapped teeth.

What Happens During Treatment?

During the bonding procedure, your dentist will apply the tooth-colored resin using adhesives and a high-intensity curing light. This helps to smooth, reshape, or resurface your teeth to give them a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Bonding requires minimal time and expenses compared to other cosmetic treatments, and you may often see results in a single visit.

A typical tooth bonding treatment may take about 30 to 60 minutes per tooth.

Caring For Your Bonded Teeth

After a bonding treatment, you only need to follow good oral hygiene practices. Bonded teeth don’t necessarily require special care besides avoiding biting on hard objects. Since the material used during your procedure can chip under pressure, patients who frequently grind or clench their teeth may not be a good fit for dental bonding.

Benefits of Teeth Bonding

Dental bonding offers numerous benefits for those who want a better-looking smile. Below are a few reasons why some people may choose this procedure:

• Repair decayed, chipped, or cracked teeth
• Change the shape of the teeth
• Close spaces between teeth
• Protect exposed gums
• Improve discolored teeth
