Dental Bonding
Dental bonding provides an excellent alternative to dental veneers for restoring teeth that are cracked, chipped, discolored, or misaligned.
Understanding Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a cosmetic treatment designed to improve the look of your teeth. This procedure is particularly useful for repairing chipped teeth, filling cavities, and closing spaces between teeth.
In the dental bonding procedure, we begin by gently etching the surface of the tooth and applying a bonding liquid. After the liquid sets, a composite resin is added and carefully shaped to achieve the desired form. Once the resin hardens, we trim, smooth, and polish it to create a flawless, natural-looking finish.
