Who is a Good Candidate for Cosmetic Bonding?
If you are in good general overall health, there’s a good chance you’ll be cleared to move forward with cosmetic dental bonding. Of course, the only way to know for sure is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Palmer to discuss your problem areas and your goals for treatment.
After examining your smile, should she discover any of the following, you’ll find this type of treatment will likely lend the results you desire:
- Chips
- Cracks
- Minor gaps
- Minor misalignments
- Stains
- Discoloration
Apart from your overall health being in good condition, you’ll also need to be free of tooth decay and gum disease. If you are showing any signs, we’ll need to incorporate the appropriate method of treatment to address these issues.
The Cosmetic Bonding Process
Cosmetic dental bonding is a less invasive process than traditional veneers because there is virtually no enamel removal needed. Instead, when you arrive, Dr. Palmer will thoroughly clean your teeth before lightly etching the front surface. This will ensure that the composite resin used adheres to the surface.
When ready, she will begin to place the color-matched resin onto the tooth enamel and start to shape and sculpt it to cover the minor imperfection. Using a curing light, she will hold it over the area to harden the resin before giving your tooth a final polish.
With proper care and maintenance, you can expect your cosmetic bonding to last several years.
