Dental Bonding in Bala Cynwyd, PA

The Procedure for Dental Bonding 

The dentist will first roughen the tooth's surface and apply a conditioning liquid before applying the composite resin. After hardening, the dentist will shape it to match the surrounding teeth and polish it for a natural appearance.  

A bonded tooth can be cared for like the rest of your teeth. Be sure to brush twice a day and floss daily. Avoid biting down on hard objects such as ice or fingernails, as this can cause the tooth to chip or break. Also, avoid smoking, as it discolors the resin. When properly cared for, a bonded tooth can last several years before the bonding needs replacing. However, the bond can stain over time from coffee, tea, or other staining foods.  

The Advantages of Dental Bonding 

• One of the primary advantages of composite bonding is its ability to improve teeth's aesthetics significantly. The composite resin material is carefully matched to the natural color of the patient's teeth, creating a seamless and natural-looking result. 
• Composite bonding can address various cosmetic dental concerns, including chipped teeth, gaps between teeth, discolored teeth, and even slightly misaligned teeth. It is a versatile solution for various cosmetic imperfections. 
• Unlike other cosmetic dental treatments, such as veneers or crowns, composite bonding is a non-invasive procedure requiring minimal tooth preparation. It preserves a more natural tooth structure, making it a conservative option. 
• A beautiful smile can significantly boost self-confidence and improve a person's overall self-esteem. Composite bonding can help individuals achieve the smile they've always desired.
