A Simple Way to Refine Your Smile
Dental bonding allows our dentist to reshape or repair your smile using natural-looking composite resin.
Bonding may be an ideal choice if you feel self-conscious about chipped, uneven, discolored, or slightly spaced teeth and want an affordable alternative to more involved cosmetic treatments such as orthodontics or porcelain veneers.
Treatment can often be completed in one visit without anesthetic, helping restore the appearance of your teeth and your confidence in your smile.
Small Changes, Noticeable Results
Composite resin can be carefully shaped and color-matched to improve several common cosmetic and restorative concerns.
Reduce the appearance of small gaps between neighboring teeth.
Rebuild chipped edges and restore a smoother, more balanced shape.
Use tooth-colored material to repair teeth affected by cavities.
Lengthen or reshape teeth to create a more even-looking smile.
Cover areas exposed by receding gums and improve their appearance.
Conceal areas of stubborn discoloration with color-matched resin.
What to Expect
Bonding is a conservative process completed directly on the tooth, allowing our dentist to refine the material as treatment progresses.
The treatment area is isolated, and a conditioning liquid gently prepares the tooth surface to form a strong connection with the bonding material.
Bonding resin is applied before several layers of tooth-colored composite are carefully placed and shaped to achieve the desired result.
A specially calibrated light hardens the material. The bonded area is then smoothed, buffed, and polished to blend naturally with the surrounding teeth.
Durable, Conservative Care
Dental bonding is durable and can typically last for many years with appropriate care.
Like most cosmetic materials, composite resin may gradually wear or discolor and may eventually need to be repaired or replaced. Routine dental visits allow our team to monitor the bonded areas and help you maintain your results.
