What is Dental Bonding?

Dental bonding is a minimally invasive dental procedure that involves applying a tooth-colored composite resin to repair chipped, cracked, discolored, or deformed teeth. It is a quick and affordable way to enhance your smile.

Some benefits of Dental Bonding:
✅ Quick and Comfortable – Completed in a single visit without the need for anesthesia (in most cases).
✅ Reasonably priced – A cost-effective alternative to veneers or crowns.
✅ Minimally Invasive – Requires little to no removal of natural tooth structure.
✅ Natural look – The composite resin is matched to your tooth color for a seamless look.
✅ Multiple Applications– Can fix chips, gaps, discoloration, and even minor misalignment.

How is Dental Bonding Done?

Tooth Preparation – The dentist prepares the tooth with light etching to help the bonding material adhere.
Composite Application – A tooth-colored composite resin is applied and molded as required.
Curing Process – A special light hardens the resin.
Polishing– The bonded tooth is polished for a natural finish.

Is Dental Bonding Right for You?

Dental bonding is a great option for minor cosmetic imperfections. However, for more significant repairs, treatments like veneers or crowns may be required.
