Composite Bonding
Have you ever wondered how to mend chipped teeth, close bothersome gaps, or say goodbye to teeth stains? The answer lies in composite bonding, a cosmetic dental procedure where Dr. Zeh reshapes your teeth using resin.
What is Composite Bonding?
Composite bonding is a cosmetic treatment that uses tooth-colored resin to enhance the appearance of your teeth.
During the procedure, our experienced dentist selects a composite resin shade to match your natural tooth color. Then, she prepares the tooth's surface, applies a bonding agent for secure adhesion, and shapes the composite resin onto the tooth.
Using a specialized curing light, Dr. Zeh hardens and sets the resin, and finally, she refines the bonded area for a beautiful and natural smile.
Common Issues that Composite Bonding Can Address
Composite bonding can address various dental concerns, including:
- Chipped teeth
- Cracked teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Discolored or stained teeth
- Misshapen or unevenly sized teeth
- Minor bite problems
Is Composite Bonding Permanent?
Composite bonding is designed to last and can endure for up to 10 years or even longer. Yet, like anything over time, it might experience staining, chipping, or wear. Don't worry; we can always touch it up or replace it when needed to keep your smile looking its best.
Who is a Suitable Candidate for Composite Bonding?
Composite bonding is a great choice if you have healthy teeth and want to improve your smile's appearance. However, if you have extensive dental problems or are looking for more permanent fixes like dental crowns or veneers, it may not be the most suitable option for you.
