What Is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is a cosmetic dentistry technique where teeth are coated with a composite resin material to make them seem better. This tooth-colored material can be sculpted, curved, and hardened to resemble the color and shape of your own teeth.
Usually, the bonding procedure starts with roughening the tooth's surface to make it more sticky. Following application, the composite resin is molded and sculpted to the appropriate shape on the tooth. The resin is bonded to the tooth by hardening it using a specific light. To guarantee a smooth and natural finish, polishing the bonded area is the last step.
Dental bonding is a relatively quick and minimally invasive procedure that can be used to address a variety of cosmetic dental issues, including:
Chipped or cracked teeth: Bonding can be used to repair chipped or cracked teeth, restoring their original shape and appearance.
Discolored teeth: Bonding can help to mask stains and discoloration, providing a brighter and more attractive smile.
Gaps between teeth: Bonding can be used to close gaps between teeth, creating a more aesthetically pleasing smile.
Misshapen teeth: Bonding can be used to reshape teeth that are misshapen or uneven.
