Cosmetic dentistry painlessly repairs broken teeth
Bonding is
typically painless and can yield dramatic results in a single office
visit. Essentially, bonding hides any natural flaws through the
placement of a thin plastic coating on the front surface of the teeth.
After treating the tooth surface, a puttylike bonding material is
applied that is then sculpted, shaped and colored to suit the patient's
needs. A high-intensity light causes the plastic to harden after which
the new surface is smoothed and polished.
Bonding can lighten stains, close gaps and even alter crooked or
malformed teeth. It can be utilized to change the shape or color of a
single tooth or if necessary to revamp the entire smile.
Please call our office for a cosmetic consultation.
