Bonding is a popular method to enhance the aesthetics of your smile. Bonding can be used to correct cracks or gaps in teeth, as a filling after a cavity has been removed, or to cover up stains or discolored teeth.
A composite resin is used on the affected tooth or teeth. It is molded and sculpted over an adhesive resin that is placed on the tooth. After the resin has been applied a curing light (uses visible blue light) is used to harden the resin, which is then polished to give you a fresh, new smile.
Bonding is an obvious improvement over unsightly black amalgam fillings. With the advancements in dental technology, bonding can last for many years. It is a safe, affordable, and attractive solution for many dental problems.
