If you have one or more discolored or damaged teeth, dental bonding can help renew your smile’s appearance. Dental bonding is a cosmetic dental treatment that uses composite resin to cover tooth imperfections. At Gettysburg Smiles, we provide tooth bonding treatment that is customized to your cosmetic goals. Dr. Rita Tempel offers professional cosmetic teeth bonding treatment for patients in her Gettysburg, PA, dental office.
Tooth chips and cracks impact the smile’s look and leave teeth prone to more damage. It is important to immediately address problems like chips in cracks in the tooth enamel. Pressure on these teeth can damage them further, and patients can lose more of their natural tooth enamel over time. A dental bonding treatment can add to the tooth structure, create a more uniform look, and prevent further damage.
Dental Bonding Treatment and Care in Gettysburg, PA
Composite material is not just for white dental fillings. Dental bonding treatment offers an effective treatment option for patients who want to address broken, worn, and stained teeth. Before bonding treatment, we ensure that patients are in good oral health. If patients have additional dental problems, including dental infections, we need to treat those problems first. Cosmetic care is more effective in healthy patients.
To begin treatment, we clean and prepare the teeth for bonding. Then, we apply a high-quality composite resin to the teeth. This resin is color-matched to blend in with the appearance of other natural teeth. We sculpt the resin material to create the correct shape. Then, once the tooth is the correct color, length, and shape, we harden the bonding material with a curing light. Finally, we polish the newly bonded tooth.
