Dental Bonding In Carmel Mountain Ranch
Dental bonding is an efficient, non-invasive way to elevate the appearance of your smile if minor chips, gaps, or misshapen teeth are keeping you from a confident grin. Dr. Carpenter of Carmel Mountain Ranch Dental Care has years of experience with cosmetic dentistry, and they can restore your smile in just a single appointment with dental bonding. This treatment can correct a wide range of cosmetic imperfections, and we promise you’ll be thrilled with the results.
The Basics Of Dental Bonding
Dental bonding uses a special type of dental resin, which is similar to the material used to create a tooth-colored filling. This resin is applied directly to your tooth and formed into a more appealing shape. By filling in chips, gaps, and other imperfections, dental bonding can restore your smile by covering most minor cosmetic issues. This treatment is also often used with shaping and contouring. Shaping and contouring involve the removal of a small amount of enamel from your adjacent teeth to give your smile a more straight, seamless look.
Understanding The Dental Bonding Process
The dental bonding process is non-invasive and usually takes about 30-60 minutes per tooth. First, your mouth will be cleaned. Then, the teeth that are being bonded will be etched to roughen the tooth surface and allow the resin to bond with it properly.
Next, Dr. Carpenter will select a resin that matches the color of your teeth perfectly. The resin will be applied to your tooth and sculpting it into the proper shape. Next, a UV light is used to harden the resin, and it is trimmed and refined to ensure that it looks just like a natural tooth. The entire process is totally painless, and usually does not even require the use of oral anesthetic or numbing agents.
The Benefits Of Dental Bonding
- Non-invasive treatment – Unlike treatments like veneers or cosmetic crowns, there is no need to remove any of your natural tooth enamel during the bonding process. The treatment is completely non-invasive.
- Fast results – You can usually have multiple teeth bonded in a single appointment, which means you can completely restore your smile with just one visit to Carmel Mountain Ranch Dental Care.
- Affordability – Bonding is much more affordable than alternative cosmetic treatments like veneers and crowns. This makes it a good choice if you’d like to restore your smile on a budget.
