What is Cosmetic Dental Bonding?

In essence, cosmetic dental bonding is a way to hide small smile flaws. It works by applying tooth-colored resin onto areas with tooth stains, little chips, cracks, etc. Once this resin properly hardens, it’ll cover up the flaws and blend seamlessly with adjacent teeth.

 

Cosmetic dental bonding only takes one or two dental visits. At its start, our dentists clean the affected teeth and remove remnants of decay. They then apply the resin onto your smile and sculpt it accordingly. The dentists will harden the results with a curing light afterward. From there, they’ll wrap up by quickly polishing your teeth and making last-minute changes.

If you're a healthy adult, the odds are that you'll qualify for cosmetic dental bonding. The bonding process doesn’t have strict requirements. Still, its best candidates are those with slight smile flaws. You’re most suited for cosmetic dental bonding if you have any of the following:

 

  • Light-to-heavy tooth stains
  • Teeth with minor chips or cracks
  • Gaps between your teeth
  • Oddly-shaped teeth
  • Short or “stubby” teeth

 

Of course, you should see our dentists to confirm your candidacy. They’ll perform a close oral exam to see if treatment would help. With their approval, they’ll then draft a custom treatment plan for you. You’ll see a transformed smile not long after.
