Teeth Bonding

Do you have chipped, cracked, or discolored teeth? Then, cosmetic treatments like dental bonding can help you improve these issues. It is a procedure where the dentist applies a tooth-colored resin to the teeth to repair the damage. This blog provides a detailed overview of what you need to know about dental bonding.

What is Dental Bonding?

Teeth bonding is a cosmetic dentistry treatment often used to repair cracked, chipped, or fractured teeth. It can also be used for teeth that are discolored or stained.

It is also considered a straightforward method as it does not involve anesthesia. Let’s discuss the procedure of dental bonding in detail below.

Dental Bonding Procedure 

First, the dentist uses a color scale to select the composite resin color that matches your natural teeth. Then, the tooth surface is roughened by applying a liquid, allowing the bonding agent to stick to the tooth. 

The composite is applied to the liquid, shapes, forms the teeth, and finally cures them with ultraviolet rays. 

The dentist also shapes the tooth, if required.

Why Get Dental Bonding?

Dental bonding can correct the imperfections or defects of the teeth. Some get bonding to repair their decayed, cracked, or discolored teeth. It is also used for filling small gaps between the teeth, and it also increases the size of the tooth. 

Bonding is an affordable, quick, and painless way to fix the following imperfections in your teeth:

  • Repair chips or cracks in teeth
  • Cover stained or discolored teeth
  • Cover minor gaps
  • Cover misshapen teeth
  • Cosmetically enhance a smile

Also, it is the fastest procedure as it takes 30 to 60 minutes to complete. However, some might even run longer depending upon the severity of the problem.

How To Take Care Of Bonded Teeth?

Your bonded tooth tends to last more than its actual term when we take care of it appropriately.

  • Brushing your teeth two times a day.
  • Floss regularly.
  • Avoid biting your nails.
  • Avoid drinks like tea, coffee, and tobacco that cause stains
  • Visit your dentist two times a year for regular dental cleaning.

You should also visit your dentist if the bonding material accidentally gets a chip or crack or if you feel sharp or rough edges after the procedure.
