Close Gaps With Cosmetic Bonding
If you have chipped, broken teeth or gaps that you'd like to close, cosmetic bonding and contouring could be an excellent, conservative solution to enhance your smile.
Cosmetic bonding involves using a composite resin material that matches the color of your natural teeth. The dentist shapes and sculpts the resin directly onto your teeth. After achieving the desired form, a special curing light hardens the material, allowing it to be trimmed and polished to perfection. This procedure can fix damaged teeth, close gaps, or even enlarge smaller teeth to create a more balanced smile.
Bonding is a less invasive and more affordable alternative to veneers or crowns, as it often requires no removal of tooth structure. It typically takes just one visit, and anesthesia is usually unnecessary unless tooth preparation or decay removal is involved. Additionally, cosmetic bonding offers the advantage of letting you "test" changes to your smile before committing to more permanent options, such as veneers or porcelain crowns.
