Understanding Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is a cosmetic dental procedure that can repair tooth damage. The bonding process involves the adhesion of composite resin, a durable plastic material, to the toothā€™s surface. The tooth-colored resin ultimately bonds to the tooth to improve its overall appearance.

This procedure is helpful for people with chipped, cracked, decayed, or discolored teeth. The composite resin used in dental bonding is pliable, allowing our dentist to customize and mold it into the proper shape or size. Our dentist can also color match the composite resin to closely match it to the natural color of the patientā€™s teeth.

Candidates for Dental Bonding

Patients with aesthetic dental problems are the best candidates for dental bonding. Dental bonding is ideal for cosmetic dental issues that do not require major restorative work. Patients that are interested in receiving this treatment should have healthy teeth without excessive decay or trauma. Teeth should also have roots that are in good condition and most of their enamel intact.

Dental bonding can help fix various dental issues, including:

  • Abnormally sized teeth
  • Discolored teeth
  • Exposed tooth roots caused by receding gums
  • Minor cracks or chips
  • Misshapen teeth
  • Small gaps in teeth

Dental Bonding Benefits

Dental bonding is a good option for restoring teeth since it is a minimally invasive procedure. This procedure allows patients to keep as much of the natural tooth structure as possible. During the application process, our dentist removes very little to no enamel at all. Minimal work to the enamel allows patients to maintain the natural health and structure of their teeth.

This quick treatment produces high-quality results that appear natural. The composite resin is durable but adaptable and can be adjusted by our doctor in the future after treatment. Dental bonding also protects and restores the function of worn-down, chipped, or discolored teeth.

Process of Dental Bonding

The dental bonding process is quick and relatively non-invasive. Our dentist will select a composite resin color that matches the patientā€™s tooth color before the dental bonding process. If a patientā€™s tooth requires drilling to change its shape or damage near a nerve, our dentist may apply a local anesthetic to minimize discomfort. During the procedure, the tooth surface is roughened and given a conditioning liquid to help the bonding material adhere to the tooth.

Our dentist will then apply, mold, and smooth the resin into the desired shape before hardening the material with a light or laser. Once the resin hardens, it is trimmed, shaped, and polished to match the toothā€™s surface. The bonding process typically takes one appointment and lasts about 30 to 60 minutes for each tooth.

Possible Risks of Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is not associated with any major risks. However, there are some potential side effects that patients should be aware of before seeking treatment. Some patients can experience an allergic reaction to the bonding materials, tools, or conditioning liquid used during the dental bonding process.

Although these reactions are rare, patients can visit an allergist before their appointment to test whether they will experience any side effects from the materials. Like any dental procedure, there is also the risk of infection. However, proper cleaning and sterilization will help prevent this from occurring.
