Dental bonding is a quick, inexpensive cosmetic procedure used to change the color and shape of your teeth. If your teeth are cracked or chipped, consider getting dental bonding done. This can help fill in any gaps and make your smile look more natural.
The treatment process is simple; our dentist applies a composite resin to your tooth and then molds and shapes the resin to achieve the desired result. The material bonds with the tooth and can be smoothed and polished to match the surrounding teeth for a natural look.
If you are unhappy with the appearance of your smile, ask our dentist at Bo Macdonald DDS Dentistry, if dental bonding suits you. Our dentist can explain your options and help you choose the proper treatment for your situation.
The Benefits of Bonding
Simplicity
The entire process can be completed during one appointment in our office. You won’t need multiple appointments and can enjoy a beautiful new smile without complications or a long wait period.
Durability
Dental bonding can last for several years with the correct aftercare and regular checkups at our office. You’ll need to practice good oral hygiene and avoid chewing on hard objects that could damage the bonding material. But as long as you take good care of your teeth and get regular dental cleanings, your dental bond should last several years before needing to be replaced.
Versatility
Dental bonding can fix cosmetic flaws, including chips, cracks, discoloration, and gaps between teeth. Patients also love using dental bonding to mask small misalignments in their smiles, such as minor crowding or crookedness. This versatile treatment can help patients achieve just about any aesthetic result they’ve always wanted for their smiles.
The Dental Bonding Procedure
A dental bonding procedure is a conservative treatment that addresses minor cosmetic flaws, such as chipped teeth or gaps between teeth. During the procedure, our cosmetic dentist will apply a composite resin material to your tooth structure to correct these flaws and improve the appearance of your smile.
The composite resin material is aesthetically appealing and can be custom-tinted to match the natural shade of your teeth. The material also bonds quickly with your tooth enamel, allowing it to blend in with the rest of your smile naturally.
Dental bonding treatments can be completed in a single visit to our office and typically require little to no preparation before your appointment. During your visit, our dentist will carefully apply the composite resin to your tooth structure and shape it to ensure it blends perfectly with your natural tooth structure. Once the procedure is complete, you’ll be able to enjoy your newly enhanced smile right away!
