Dental Bonding to Bond Your Friendship

Bonding is a composite resin filling, placed in the back teeth as well as the front teeth. Composites are a solution for restoring decayed teeth, remove any strains on teeth, changing the color of teeth, close up minor gaps between teeth, correct crooked teeth, or reshaping the teeth.

A dental bonding procedure generally takes an hour or two, and involves the following steps:

  • apply a thin coating of a plastic material on the front surface of your teeth;
  • apply a bonding material, and sculpt, color, and shape it to provide a pleasing result;
  • apply a high-intensity light to harden the surface;
  • finely polish the surface;
  • apply a very mild etching solution to your teeth to create very small crevices in the tooth's enamel structure (to roughen the surface);
  • place a durable resin (of a shade matching to your color) to bond materials to your teeth;
  • apply a high-intensity light to cure (set) the resins onto your tooth's surface;
  • repeat the bonding and curing as many times as needed;
  • sculp the bonded material to fit your tooth;
  • finely polish the surface.
