One of easiest and painless ways to fix minor tooth imperfections is with dental bonding. Dental bonding is when a material is adhered to your damaged tooth, shaped and polished, to make it look perfect. This is used for teeth that are discoloured, cracked, or chipped. Bonding can last for years.
The Simple Dental Bonding Process
Your tooth enamel is slightly etched so the bonding will stick to it.
The bond is hardened and polished to look like your natural tooth, only better.
The bonding material is adhered to the tooth with the dentist shaping it to fit your tooth and look natural.
Dental bonding is one of the most affordable cosmetic techniques in dentistry. It is highly durable with bonds lasting an average of 5 to 10 years, but many times longer with proper maintenance. Dental bonds function like your natural teeth and offer more strength to damaged teeth.
