What Is Dental Bonding?

Dental bonding involves applying a tooth-colored resin material to the teeth. This material is carefully sculpted and bonded to the tooth’s surface, effectively correcting various dental imperfections.

At Warren Family Dentistry, Dr. Behbood can customize your dental bonding solution, allowing your results to blend seamlessly into your smile. Dental bonding can produce excellent results to perfect the following cosmetic issues:

• Stained or discolored teeth
• Cracked teeth
• Chipped teeth
• Broken teeth
• Gaps between teeth

The Benefits of Dental Bonding

Dental bonding offers a plethora of benefits that make it a popular choice among patients seeking smile enhancement. Some of the advantages include:

• Natural Appearance: The resin used in bonding closely resembles the color and texture of natural teeth, ensuring a seamless blend with your existing teeth.
• Versatility: Bonding can address many concerns, such as chips, cracks, discoloration, and gaps between teeth.
• Non-Invasive: Unlike other procedures, bonding typically requires minimal alteration of the tooth structure, making it a conservative choice.
• Immediate Results: In most cases, the bonding procedure can be completed in a single visit, providing instant improvements to your smile.
• Affordability: Bonding is a cost-effective solution for enhancing your smile without breaking the bank.

The Dental Bonding Procedure

The dental bonding procedure at Warren Family Dentistry is a straightforward process that involves the following steps:

Preparation

Your Warren dentist will start by color-matching the resin to your natural teeth. This customization ensures your dental bonding treatment blends into your natural smile. Then, we’ll prepare the tooth by microscopically roughening the tooth’s surface to ensure proper adhesion.

Application

Once Dr. Behbood has prepared your tooth, she’ll apply the personalized resin solution to the tooth with a brush. She’ll then shape and sculpt it onto the tooth’s surface to achieve a shape and size that looks natural in your smile. 

Bonding

A special light then hardens the resin, securing it to the tooth. Once it has solidified, your dentist will trim, shape, and polish the tooth to ensure it sits comfortably within your bite as you rest your teeth together. This final polishing process also makes your tooth as radiant as the surrounding natural teeth.

Caring For Your Dental Bonding Results

After your bonding procedure, it’s crucial that you meticulously care for your teeth to ensure the longevity of your results. Follow Dr. Behbood’s tips to understand the best way to keep your smile gleaming following dental bonding: 

• Maintain Good Oral Hygiene: Brush your teeth at least twice daily using a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive fluoride toothpaste. Floss daily to remove food particles and plaque from between your teeth and around the bonding.
• Regular Dental Check-Ups: Schedule routine dental check-ups at Warren Family Dentistry. Regular visits allow your dentist in Warren to monitor the condition of your bonding, address any issues, and provide professional cleaning to keep your smile radiant.
• Avoid Staining Foods and Drinks: Certain foods and beverages can cause staining and discoloration, affecting your natural teeth and the bonded material. Limit your consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, and highly pigmented foods.
• Quit Smoking: Tobacco products, including cigarettes and smokeless tobacco, can stain and weaken your dental bonding. Quitting smoking not only benefits your overall health but also helps maintain the vibrancy of your smile.
• Be Mindful of Chewing Habits: Avoid biting hard objects like ice, pens, and fingernails, as well as using your teeth to open packages. Excessive force can chip or crack the bonding material.
• Wear a Mouthguard: If you’re prone to teeth grinding or clenching, especially at night, wearing a mouthguard can protect your natural teeth and bonding from unnecessary wear and damage.
• Consider Bonding Touch-Ups: Over time, bonding may need touch-ups to maintain its original appearance. If you notice any color, shape, or texture changes, consult Dr. Behbood to discuss possible touch-up options.
