Understanding Dental Bonding
Dr. Surjit Chahal may recommend dental bonding as a more conservative treatment option when it comes to improving your smile. Dental bonding is a simple cosmetic treatment and can usually be completed in a single visit to Allure Dental Care & Orthodontics. Perhaps best of all, because bonding requires little or no tooth preparation, you can count on a comfortable treatment experience.
When Would You Need Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is typically recommended to:
- Close gaps between teeth
- Improve the appearance of misshapen teeth
- Lighten teeth that are severely stained or discolored
- Restore teeth damaged by chipping or cracking
The Dental Bonding Process
When you receive dental bonding, our cosmetic dentist will place a composite resin material onto your teeth. The resin will be carefully selected to match or improve the color of your teeth. This resin is easily malleable and almost puttylike when initially applied to the teeth, allowing our cosmetic dentist to shape and sculpt it to fit the contours of your teeth and correct the imperfections in their appearance. Once the correct appearance has been achieved, we can harden, trim, and polish the resin to provide you with a long-lasting and natural-looking appearance.
