Within cosmetic dentistry, dental bonding shines as a quick, minimally invasive method for addressing dental imperfections. At Sunshine Dental, we merge expertise with aesthetic precision to ensure results from dental bonding that are both lasting and visually appealing. Through this procedure, we adhere a tooth-colored resin to the teeth and solidify it with a specialized light, rejuvenating smiles effortlessly.
Why Choose Dental Bonding?
Beyond its aesthetic brilliance, dental bonding offers solutions for:
- Mending chips or slight breaks.
- Masking discolored teeth.
- Filling in gaps between teeth.
- Adjusting tooth shape or length.
During a consultation, our cosmetic dentist will assess your smile to see if this cosmetic treatment is suitable for you.
Your Bonding Experience with Us
Dental bonding is a simple yet transformative procedure. Here is a concise overview of what you can expect at our dental office:
- Consultation: Every successful procedure starts with a thorough consultation. Dr. Aaron Kohan will evaluate the condition of your teeth and determine if dental bonding is the best solution for you.
- Color Selection: A shade guide is used to select a composite resin color that closely matches your natural tooth shade, ensuring the bonding seamlessly blends with the rest of your teeth.
- Tooth Preparation: The surface of the tooth will be lightly roughened, and a conditioning liquid applied. This step helps the bonding material adhere securely to the tooth.
- Application of Resin: The tooth-colored resin is then applied, molded, and smoothed to achieve the desired shape. This malleable material allows for fine-tuning to get the perfect contour.
- Curing: Once the resin is properly positioned, it is hardened using an ultraviolet light or laser.
- Finishing Touches: After the resin has been set, Dr. Kohan might further trim and shape the bonded area. The tooth is then polished until it matches the sheen of the surrounding teeth.
Typically, the procedure takes 30 to 60 minutes per tooth, offering a quick path to an enhanced smile.
