Dental bonding is one of the most cost-effective cosmetic dental procedures!
In the preparation stage, little advance preparation is needed for dental bonding. Anesthesia is often not necessary unless the bonding is being used to fill a decayed tooth. Dr. Skelton will use a shade guide to select a composite resin color that closely matches the color of your tooth.
Next, the surface of the tooth will be roughened and a conditioning liquid applied. These procedures help the bonding material adhere to the tooth. The tooth-colored, putty-like resin is then applied, molded, and smoothed to the desired shape.
The final step involves hardening the resin with an ultraviolet light or laser. After the material is hardened, Dr. Skelton will further trim and shape it, and polish it to match the sheen of the rest of the tooth surface.
Dental bonding is a great solution for improving your smile as the composite resin used in the procedure is closely matched to your natural teeth. This ensures a seamless, natural-looking result that enhances your overall smile.
Compared to veneers and crowns, dental bonding requires the least amount of tooth enamel removal. This is beneficial as it preserves more of your natural tooth structure.
Dental bonding is a relatively quick procedure, often completed in one office visit. This makes it a convenient solution for busy individuals who want to improve their smile without multiple trips to the dentist's office.
Dental bonding treatment can last up to 10 years with proper care!
