What is Tooth Bonding?
Tooth bonding is a cosmetic dental procedure that uses a tooth-colored resin to fix minor imperfections in your teeth. This is great for chipped teeth, filling in gaps, or covering stained teeth that don’t respond to traditional teeth whitening. The bonding material is applied to the surface of your tooth and shaped to match your existing teeth. Once the resin is in place, a special light is used to harden the material so it’s strong and natural-looking. Tooth bonding is a quick and affordable way to fix your smile without the need for more extensive procedures like porcelain veneers.
Tooth bonding is a quick and pain-free procedure that takes less than an hour per tooth. During your visit, the dentist will select a tooth-colored resin that matches the shade of your natural teeth so it blends in with your existing tooth. This is great for minor repairs like fixing chips or misshapen teeth. Since the procedure requires minimal enamel removal, it’s one of the least invasive cosmetic procedures available. With proper care, your bonded teeth can last for several years, so it’s a great investment in your smile.
