Dental Bonding

Having a chipped tooth or cracked tooth can hamper your confidence, lower your self-esteem, and make you conscious during social interaction. There are many people who are suffering from this oral health issue. If you are someone who falls into this category and is worried about what to do, then we have got a piece of good news for you. Today, with the help of cosmetic dental procedures like tooth bonding, you can get rid of this problem and can get your dream smile back. 

Tooth bonding is a dental procedure where the dentist applies a tooth-colored composite resin to your teeth, which helps repair the damage. Compared to the other dentistry procedure, this procedure is considered the easiest way to fix the cracked or chipped tooth because it is less expensive than the other methods and doesn't demand anesthesia. 

The process starts initially with the dentist matching the shade guide to choose the composite resin that matches your teeth' color. The dentist then roughens the tooth surface and applies the liquid, which acts as a bonding agent to stick to the teeth. The dentist will then apply the composite resin over the liquid, then harden the material with the help of ultraviolet light. In some cases, the dentist might even shape the tooth after the hardening of the resin. 

There are many benefits of dental bonding, and some of them are mentioned below:

  • It will help fix your cracked or chipped tooth. 
  • It can be useful in fixing the defect or the imperfection within the tooth. 
  • This procedure can also solve the problem of the small gaps between teeth. 
  • It helps in increasing the size of the tooth. 
  • You don't have to go through anesthesia to get this treatment. 

Generally, the tooth bonding will take somewhere around 30 to 60 mins, but it can vary, which depends on the patient's oral health condition. 

If you are looking for treatment for your cracked or chipped tooth but are not ready to go through the complex procedure, then dental bonding is the best solution for you.
