Enhancing Smiles with Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a conservative method used to fix minor issues like chipped, discolored, or misaligned teeth. This procedure involves applying a tooth-colored filling onto the affected tooth to enhance its look. The filling securely adheres to your teeth and is available in various shades that closely resemble your natural teeth.
Tooth bonding is an alternative to amalgam fillings for teeth fillings. Bonded fillings are favored by numerous patients due to their less noticeable white color compared to silver amalgam fillings. The use of bonding fillings is determined by the location and severity of tooth decay, and can be applied to both front and back teeth.
Bonding is a cost-effective cosmetic treatment that typically requires only one visit to our office. However, it is important to note that bonding is more prone to staining and breakage compared to alternatives like porcelain veneers. In the event of any breakage or chipping, please inform your doctor so that the bonding can be promptly patched or repaired during a single visit.
