Your dentist will begin your tooth bonding treatment with comprehensive digital X-rays to ensure we address all your concerns with precision. A tooth bonding procedure uses a special composite resin material that’s carefully color-matched to your teeth. During the procedure, we gently prepare the tooth surface, apply the resin, shape it to the perfect form, and then harden it with a special light. Finally, we polish the bonded area until it blends seamlessly with your smile.
You can address these common issues with dental bonding:
- Small chips or cracks in teeth
- Minor gaps between teeth
- Uneven or worn tooth edges
- Discolored areas that don’t respond to whitening
- Exposed tooth roots from gum recession
- Misshapen teeth
- Small cavities in visible areas
Combine Bonding With Other Treatments for Enhanced Results
Many patients choose to combine cosmetic bonding with other esthetic treatments for more dramatic results. For example, starting with professional teeth whitening ensures your bonding matches your brightest smile.
For some teeth, porcelain veneers might work better alongside bonding – especially for more visible areas or teeth that need significant changes. Our experienced team will help you create a treatment plan that achieves your smile goals while respecting your budget and timeline.
