What is Tooth Bonding?
Teeth bonding, also known as dental bonding, is a cosmetic dentistry procedure that involves a tooth-colored resin. Your dentist will apply the resin to the surface of your teeth. This versatile treatment can address many dental concerns, including:
- Repairing Chipped or Cracked Teeth: Bonding is an excellent solution for restoring the look of teeth that have suffered from minor damage. For example, bonding is great for patients with chips or cracks in their enamel.
- Closing Gaps: If you have small gaps between your teeth, we can use bonding to fill in these spaces. Therefore, we can provide a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing smile.
- Improving Tooth Shape and Size: Bonding allows your dentist to reshape and resize your teeth. This will create a more harmonious and balanced smile.
- Covering Stains: You may have stubborn stains and discoloration that do not respond to chemical teeth whitening treatments. Alternatively, you can use bonding to camouflage and conceal stains.
With teeth bonding, you can achieve a more attractive and symmetrical smile. Together, we can help you address mild imperfections with your smile. We can use bonding for various cosmetic issues. This provides you with a versatile solution for those seeking smile improvements.
Unlike some other cosmetic procedures, tooth bonding is a non-invasive treatment that requires little to no enamel removal. Finally, you can say goodbye to self-consciousness and say hello to the newfound confidence with a beautiful smile.
