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:
