What is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is a quick, non-invasive cosmetic treatment where a tooth-colored resin is applied to improve the appearance of your teeth. It’s a versatile and affordable solution for correcting:
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Stubborn stains or discoloration
- Small gaps between teeth
- Irregularly shaped or small teeth
- Exposed roots due to gum recession
The resin is sculpted, hardened, and polished to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, giving you a flawless, natural-looking smile in just one appointment.
Did You Know? Most bonding procedures are completed in under an hour, usually without the need for anesthesia!
Why Choose Dental Bonding?
- Fast & Painless – No drilling or anesthesia required in most cases.
- Budget-Friendly – A cost-effective alternative to veneers and crowns.
- Instant Results – Walk out with an improved smile the same day.
- Minimally Invasive – Preserves your natural enamel.
- Seamless Appearance – The material is color-matched to your teeth for a natural look.
- Easily Reversible – Can be modified or removed if needed.
Ideal for anyone looking for a simple and effective cosmetic enhancement!
How Does the Dental Bonding Process Work?
1. Consultation & Shade Matching
Your dentist will examine your teeth and choose a resin shade that blends naturally with your smile.
2. Tooth Preparation
The surface of the tooth is slightly roughened and a bonding agent is applied to help the resin adhere properly.
3. Application & Shaping
The composite resin is applied in layers and shaped to perfection for a seamless, natural look.
4. Hardening with a Special Light
A curing light is used to harden the material, ensuring durability and strength.
5. Finishing Touches
The bonded tooth is polished and adjusted for a smooth finish that mimics natural enamel.
Total Procedure Time: 30 to 60 minutes per tooth
