Cosmetic Bonding
With bonding, we can close spaces between teeth, lengthen small or misshapen teeth, or whiten stained or dark teeth. We can shape and color a single tooth, or improve your entire smile. When teeth are chipped or beginning to wear, bonding can protect them from damage and restore their original looks.

Composites are the solution for restoring teeth and will lighten any stains you may have, close minor gaps and can be used to correct crooked teeth.

Because natural tooth structure is not removed, its best use is somewhat limited to broken or chipped teeth.

Over time the bonded portion of a tooth will change color as compared to the natural, unbonded portion of the tooth.

The Procedure
Bonding your teeth with a material called resin requires just one appointment. First, we roughen and prepare the teeth and apply a conditioning gel. Then we place the resin, sculpt it to the desired shape, and harden it with a harmless, high-intensity light.

Once in place, bonded restorations are very strong. Bonding can drastically improve your smile the final result is beautiful and natural looking teeth.

What is the advantage of bonding?
The advantage of bonding is that it is inexpensive and is an ultra conservative way to restore a tooth. What is the disadvantage of bonding? The disadvantage of bonding is that it can and will discolor, it is also more prone to breakage.

A porcelain veneer on the other hand, will not discolor and will be far stronger in the long run. It's a larger investment and the preparation of the effected tooth will be more extensive, but it is strong and long lasting.
