Bonding
Bonding is a conservative way to repair slightly-chipped,
discolored or crooked teeth, often for cosmetic purposes. The
process comprises placing a white filling on your tooth to improve
its appearance. The filling "bonds" with your teeth, and because
it comes in a variety of tooth-colored shades, it closely matches
the appearance of your natural teeth.
Bonding can also
be used in place of regular amalgam fillings. Many patients prefer
bonded fillings, because the white color is much less noticeable
than the silver of the amalgam fillings. Bonding fillings can be
used on front and back teeth, depending on the location and extent
of tooth decay.
Bonding is less expensive than other
cosmetic treatments and can usually be completed in one visit to
our office. However, bonding can stain and breaks more easily than
other cosmetic treatments like porcelain veneers.
If
your bonding does break or chip, please let us know. We can
generally patch or repair bonding in one visit.
"Might be the best dentist office visit I have ever had. I found out things about my teeth I hadn't known in all my 62 years. Dr. Paul is awesome and every person I met or spoke to on the phone prior to my initial appointment was also really great. Highly recommend."
