Bonding

Bonding is a cosmetic procedure that allows the dentist to reshape or repair your smile using composite resin. Cosmetic bonding is particularly ideal if you’re unhappy with the appearance of your smile or want an alternative to invasive and more costly procedures such as orthodontics or veneers. With bonding, chipped or uneven teeth can be repaired and restored, usually in one visit.  

As with most cosmetic procedures, bonding will wear and discolor over time, eventually needing to be replaced; however, bonding is very durable and typically lasts many years.  

Reasons for cosmetic bonding:

• Closing spaces or gaps
• Fixing chipped teeth
• Fixing decayed teeth (teeth with cavities)
• Lengthening uneven teeth
• Protecting roots exposed by receding gums
• Restoring badly discolored teeth
