What is Cosmetic Dental Bonding?
Cosmetic dental bonding is a method of hiding slight flaws in your smile. It works by setting tooth-colored resin on
the affected teeth. As this resin hardens, it hides chips, cracks, stains, and even gaps from view. The results then
blend seamlessly with the rest of your grin.
Normally, the bonding process takes one or two dental visits. It starts by cleaning the relevant teeth and removing
their decayed areas. Next, our dental team applies and sculps the resin onto your smile. They then harden this
material with a curing light. Once that’s done, they finish treatment by polishing your teeth and making
last-minute changes.
Who is a Good Candidate for Cosmetic Dental Bonding?
So long as you’re a healthy adult, you ought to qualify for cosmetic dental bonding. The treatment’s
requirements aren’t strict. Of course, the best bonding candidates are those with minor smile flaws. That
means you’re well-suited for this procedure if you have any of the following:
- Slightly Chipped or Cracked Teeth
- Light-to-Heavy Tooth Stains
- Small Tooth Gaps
- Short or “Stubby” Teeth
- Oddly-Shaped teeth
Before you commit to anything, please see Dr. Muddanna to confirm your candidacy. She’ll perform a close oral
exam to see if bonding could help. With her approval, we’ll then draft a custom treatment plan for you.
You’ll see beautiful changes in your grin soon after.
