Why dental bonding may be right for you!

Dental bonding is a great solution for correcting several cosmetic dental issues you may be experiencing, such as:

• Repairing a tooth crack
• Restoring color to a discolored tooth
• Closing small gaps between teeth

Dental bonding is an cost effective cosmetic dental procedure when compared to several other expensive procedures such as crowns or veneers. Not only is the price right, but it’s also very time efficient, normally requiring only a single visit taking anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes. Because it requires no downtime or the use of any local anesthesia, you will be back on your feet and out the door in what seems like no time at all showing off your restored smile.

The dental bonding process

During dental bonding, a composite resin is used that can be shaped and then polished so that it matches the appearance of your surrounding teeth. While dental bonding is typically used in cosmetic dentistry, it can also be used in place of amalgam teeth fillings and to protect tooth roots that have been exposed due to gumline recession. Once a doctor at Milford Dental and Associates has examined your dental situation and decided that dental bonding is a viable solution for you, the process is quite simple.

Once the dental bonding treatment has started, composite resin will be selected with the purpose of matching the color of surrounding teeth. The doctor will then delicately grind down (ever so slightly) the surface of the tooth receiving the dental bonding. The purpose of this is so that a slightly roughened surface is created onto which a conditioning liquid is then applied which is meant to assist in the adhesion of the bonding material.

Once this is completed and the tooth is ready, the resin (think of it as a putty-like material) can then be adhered to the tooth and shaped into an appropriate shape. This resin is then hardened via a UV light. Once the resin has fully hardened, The doctor can then move to the finishing touches before a polish is applied to the newly bonded tooth. Nobody will ever be able to distinguish this cosmetically altered tooth from surrounding natural teeth.
