Teeth Bonding
Composite resins are a more esthetically-pleasing alternative to metal fillings or restorations. They have similar characteristics to a tooth’s natural enamel, and their color can be adjusted to match the particular color of your teeth.
Teeth Bonding is a non-invasive procedure that can provide astounding improvements in the appearance of your teeth. Bonding of composite is the dental treatment of choice over teeth whitening for patients that have Tetracycline stains produced when they took this antibiotic in childhood.
Procedure
Dental bonding procedures can usually be completed in one visit. For minor alterations, the resin can be matched to your teeth while you are in the dental office. For more extensive alterations, an impression of the area needs to be taken and sent to a lab, where the final restoration will be constructed. Larger, custom-designed restorations are usually composed of porcelain, rather than composite resin. Your custom restoration is bonded to the teeth on a second visit.
During the teeth bonding procedure, a mild etching solution is first applied to the area of natural tooth enamel to receive the restoration. This solution roughens the surface which allows for a stronger bond between the tooth and resin.
Next, the resin is placed on the tooth and treated with ultraviolet light that activates bonding. Your dentist then sculpts the resin to the desired shape and polishes the area.
