Corcoran, CA patients benefit from cosmetic treatments such as dental bonding
Posted By Dr. Nikunj Raiyani
What is dental bonding?
Dental bonding is the use of a material called composite resin that looks like the natural tooth enamel. It can be utilized by a dentist to address a variety of imperfections on the visible teeth near the front of the smile, called the anterior teeth. It is best utilized to address:- Gaps between the teeth
- Misaligned teeth
- Chipped teeth
- Unusually shaped teeth
- Permanently stained teeth
Who is a candidate for dental bonding?
Most patients can use composite resin bonding for their smiles. Composite resin is used in many different situations for patients and is a common material used in tooth-colored fillings.Schedule Your Visit
How is dental bonding placed?
Once patients have had a consultation appointment with our team at Hanford Family Dental Center and have decided to move forward with composite resin bonding, they may undergo some preparations of the smile. This may include filing down the enamel to help the material attach to the natural tooth structure. Once filed and etched for better adhesion, the composite resin bonding is applied to the tooth. This clay-like material is shaped in place by the dentist to cover the areas of concern. After this has been done, and the excess removed, the dentist will then utilize a curing light. This hardens the material, which then allows the dentist to file and polish it to match the natural tooth structure. When composite resin bonding is in place and completed, it is practically indistinguishable from the enamel. This is because our team pays close attention to the color of the restoration to ensure that it is as aesthetic as possible.How long does dental bonding last?
Dental bonding will often last several years when patients properly care for their smile and maintain routine dental visits with the team at Hanford Family Dental Center. The material is susceptible to staining and discoloration. This means that over time, it may become yellowed due to eating and drinking certain foods or beverages. We encourage patients to ask questions about how to reduce staining to extend the life of their restorations.Is there an alternative to composite resin?
