What is Teeth Bonding?
Dental teeth bonding is a procedure where a resin material (colored to match your teeth’s shade) is applied to a tooth to correct any number of issues. This resin is applied via adhesives and a curing light. The name bonding comes from the fact that these materials are physically bonded to the tooth. Patients looking to improve the appearance of a tooth due to discoloration, chipping, or any other issues look to dental bonding as an easy, affordable, and pain-free method. Bonding can even be used to close gaps between teeth, change the shape or color of a tooth, or even to make a tooth appear longer. In some cases, bonding can be used as a cosmetic alternative to an amalgam filling or to protect an exposed portion of a tooth’s root due to gum recession. Overall, dental bonding can be used to correct the following dental issues:
- Repair decaying teeth (composite resin is used to fill the cavity)
- Repair cracked or chipped teeth
- Correct the appearance of tooth discoloration
- Close gaps between teeth
- Make a tooth appear longer
- Change the shape of a tooth
- A cosmetic alternative to an amalgam filling
- Protect a tooth’s root that may have become exposed due to gum recession
