If you’re dealing with small imperfections in your smile, dental bonding can be an efficient and straightforward solution. Chips, cracks, or slight gaps can develop over time due to genetics, diet, or minor dental injuries, and bonding offers a simple way to address these issues.
Contact Rudnick Dentistry today to find out if dental bonding is the right option for enhancing your smile.
What Is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding involves using a tooth-colored composite resin, similar to a filling material, to repair minor flaws in your teeth. While dental bonding can help improve small chips, slight gaps, and mild discoloration, it’s ideal for less extensive changes rather than a full smile transformation.
This minimally invasive treatment can subtly adjust the shape of a tooth or improve its appearance without significant alteration. One of the benefits of dental bonding is that it is reversible and can be adjusted or removed if needed.
Dental bonding is a good option if you’re seeking an affordable, efficient treatment for minor cosmetic concerns that doesn’t require multiple appointments or extensive work.
The Dental Bonding Process
The dental bonding procedure is typically straightforward, often without the need for anesthesia. When you receive dental bonding at Rudnick Dentistry, the process involves:
- Selecting a shade of resin that closely matches your natural teeth.
- Applying a conditioning liquid to help the resin adhere to the tooth.
- Molding and applying the composite resin.
- Using a curing light to harden the resin and polishing it for a natural look.
The process usually takes around 30 minutes to an hour per tooth, making it a quick and convenient way to enhance your smile
