BONDING

Tooth bonding is used for a variety of purposes: to correct a tooth gap, to cover discolorations, or to repair chipped/cracked teeth. Bonding takes approximately 30-60 minutes in a single visit to our office. Tooth bonding is dependent upon the artistic ability of the dentist, since the work is done

“freehand” without taking impressions or using a laboratory. The tooth must be color-matched, sculpted, and polished to produce a beautiful and natural-looking result. Our doctors are specially trained in tooth bonding techniques with years of experience in cosmetic dentistry.

The Bonding Procedure
First, we select a shade of composite resin that is as close as possible to the shade of your teeth. Then, the dentist will apply a liquid that helps the bonding material adhere to the teeth. The composite resin is applied to the teeth, smoothed into the desired shape, and hardened with a high intensity light. After the resin has hardened, the dentist will make a few final touches and polish the teeth being treated until they resemble the other teeth. The dentist can repair multiple teeth during a single visit.
