At the Carrollton Dentist, our toolkit is filled with useful tools for fixing most cosmetic tooth issues. In the past few years, porcelain veneers, dental implants, and same-day teeth whitening have attracted a lot of attention. In today’s post, we are going to talk about an effective, yet relatively uncelebrated dental treatment that has been used successfully for decades. We’re talking about dental bonding.
The dental bonding procedure uses a resin material that is sturdy and natural looking. It is applied to the teeth while soft and putty-like, and then hardened (or cured) with a special light. The material bonds with the tooth and can then be shaped and polished.
Dentists use bonding to repair tooth problems caused by decay, chips, or cracks. Large spaces between healthy teeth can be filled with bonding material, and bonding can protect tooth roots if the gums have regressed.
Discolored teeth can also be lightened with bonding. Since bonding material is easily molded, teeth can be lengthened or re-shaped to more nice proportions. Bonding is frequently used as part of a total smile makeover.
In additon to dental bonding, the Carrollton Dentist also offers Invisalign, teeth whitening, sedation dentistry, gum disease, and porcelain veneers.
If you live in the Carrollton area and are looking for quality dental care or have cosmetic dentistry questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We love hearing from you!
