Smile problems? Dental bonding can improve the overall appearance of your smile. With bonding, you have one of the fastest, easiest and most affordable dental treatments at your disposal. Dr. Richard Hopgood at Advanced Dental Concepts in Andover, MA, offers a full range of dental services. Here's everything you should know about bonding.
Dental Bonding Overview
Dental bonding is a dental procedure in which a dentist applies a tooth-colored resin material to one or more teeth and cures it with light. This improves the overall appearance of the teeth. Dental bonding is routinely used to repair various tooth damages such as tooth decay, gaps, or cracks. Dental bonding is also used to fix discolored teeth, make the teeth appear longer, or change the shape of teeth.
Benefits of Dental Bonding
Bonding can usually be done in just one visit. The procedure takes about 30-60 minutes per tooth to complete. Very little enamel is removed during the procedure, which gives it an advantage over options like dental crowns.
Ideal Candidates for Bonding
If your mouth is healthy, you may be a suitable candidate for dental bonding. This cosmetic dental procedure is not an appropriate treatment for patients with oral health problems that require immediate care. Once these oral health problems have been treated, then a patient's candidacy for dental bonding may be reassessed.
Your Dental Consultation
During your dental consultation, your Andover dentist will talk to you about the cosmetic changes you would like to make to your smile. During your consultation, your dentist will conduct an examination of your teeth and gums that may involve dental x-rays. Your dentist will then determine if you are a suitable candidate for dental bonding.
