What Is Dental Bonding?
During the dental bonding process, we mold a tooth-colored resin over the surface of a tooth whose appearance you wish to change. The resin is similar to what we use for tooth-colored fillings. Once it is in place, we harden it with a special light. Then, we polish and adjust it so it looks and feels both beautiful and natural.
Dental bonding can be used to disguise numerous minor imperfections in teeth, including the following:
- Small chips and cracks
- Small gaps between the teeth
- Asymmetrical or misshapen teeth
- Badly discolored teeth
Who Is a Good Candidate for Dental Bonding?
We might recommend you as a candidate for dental bonding if:
- You wish to make minor enhancements to your smile. Bonding is great for changing the appearance of one or two teeth. If you want a more comprehensive smile transformation, we might suggest that you get veneers instead.
- Your mouth is healthy enough for cosmetic treatment. You should be free of issues like untreated cavities and gum disease. Once your mouth is healthy, we may determine that the time is right to move forward with cosmetic procedures, such as dental bonding.
Really, the best way to find out if dental bonding is right for you is simply to attend a cosmetic consultation with our team!
The Benefits of Dental Bonding
Dental bonding offers some pretty remarkable benefits:

- If you ever change your mind about bonding or wish to upgrade to veneers, the process can be reversed.
- Easy maintenance. With regular brushing and flossing, along with other good habits, dental bonding often lasts for several years.
- Versatile and customizable. Bonding can address multiple smile imperfections, and we can choose the color/shape of the bonding so it beautifully complements your natural features.
