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. Please call Smile
