Dental bonding can dramatically enhance the look of your teeth and smile. It can correct various imperfections like chips, cracks, discoloration, and gaps. The resin used in bonding can be shaped and polished to match the rest of your teeth, making it a natural-looking solution to improve your smile.
Gum recession, a common dental problem, often leads to the exposure of roots. Dental bonding can be used to cover these exposed roots, providing protection against sensitivity and further damage.
Dental bonding is significantly more cost-effective than other cosmetic dental procedures like veneers and crowns. The procedure can typically be completed in one visit to Dr. Leonett at New Tempo Family Dental, making it a convenient choice for busy individuals.
In this initial step, Dr. Leonett will use a shade guide to select a composite resin color that closely matches the color of your natural teeth. This ensures that the bonding material blends seamlessly with your existing teeth, creating a natural-looking result. No anesthesia is usually required unless the bonding is being used to fill a decayed tooth. If necessary, Dr. Leonett will numb the area around the tooth to ensure your comfort during the procedure. She will then prepare the tooth by slightly etching the surface to help the bonding material adhere better.
Dr. Leonett will roughen the surface of the tooth and apply a conditioning liquid. This creates tiny crevices in the tooth enamel that help the bonding material form a strong connection. These steps help the bonding material adhere to the tooth. The tooth-colored, putty-like resin is then applied, molded, and smoothed to the desired shape. Dr. Leonett will skillfully sculpt the resin to match the natural contours of your tooth, paying close attention to details such as ridges and crevices. The bonding material is applied in layers to ensure a durable and aesthetically pleasing result.
The final step involves hardening the resin with a special light. This high-intensity light causes the bonding material to cure and harden, creating a strong and durable bond with your tooth. After the material is hardened, Dr. Leonett will further trim and shape it, then polish it to match the sheen of the rest of the tooth's surface. She will carefully check your bite to ensure that the bonded tooth feels comfortable and natural. If necessary, she will make additional adjustments to achieve the perfect fit. The result? A more confident, beautiful smile that you'll be proud to show off!
