Dental bonding is a versatile cosmetic treatment that involves applying a tooth-colored resin material to your teeth. This resin is then hardened with a special light, which ultimately bonds the material to the tooth to restore or improve a person’s smile. It’s a great choice for making aesthetic changes and for correcting imperfections in a single visit

What is dental bonding?
Dental bonding is a cosmetic procedure in which a tooth-colored composite resin material is applied to your teeth to repair decay, chips, fractures, or discoloration. Bonding can also be used to make teeth look longer or to change their shape, making it a cost-effective solution for cosmetic dental concerns. The procedure does not require the removal of enamel and is reversible if no tooth enamel is shaved down initially.

How long does dental bonding last?
The lifespan of dental bonding depends on the extent of the bonding and your oral habits. Typically, bonding material lasts from 3 to 10 years before needing to be touched up or replaced. This duration can be extended with good oral hygiene practices and by avoiding habits that could put stress on the bonded teeth, such as biting on ice, pens, or using your teeth to open packaging.

Does dental bonding hurt?
Dental bonding is a pain-free procedure. Most dental bonding processes do not require anesthesia unless the bonding is being used to fill a decayed tooth. The procedure involves minimal tooth preparation, with no significant alteration to the tooth structure. As such, it is generally considered comfortable and straightforward, causing no pain to the patient.
