Are your chipped or cracked teeth causing you to smile subconsciously when meeting people? Perhaps you don’t like the discoloration on your teeth because they make you uncomfortable before others. Why do you consider enduring the challenges when you can find a Conservative and affordable treatment option for your teeth from The Dental Roots, New Delhi, helping you conceal your dental flaws?
Dr. Dheeraj Setia and his experienced team of experts are working on various smile makeover treatment options like veneers, composite fillings, dental bonding, and many more.
What is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is an aesthetic dentistry procedure where the cosmetic dentist near you bonds your teeth with a tooth-coloured composite resin material before sculpting, hardening, and polishing the affected tooth. The process is called bonding because the resin bonds to your affected tooth.
Dental bonding is excellent for minor, aesthetic dental work by closing small gaps between your teeth for fixing chipped or cracked teeth. The tooth-coloured composite resin material is similar to the white fillings you might have in your teeth to repair cavities. Dr. Setia and his team generally use composite resin to fill holes in the front teeth to keep your smile aesthetically pleasing.
Who Needs Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding can help many to fix imperfections with their teeth by helping correct minor dental imperfections. For example, if you have a tooth, you feel is shorter than the rest, dental bonding helps elongate it to help you have a symmetrical smile. The bonding treatment is also an option if you have the following conditions:
- You desire to fix a chipped or cracked one.
- You want to fix cavities in your anterior teeth with an aesthetically pleasing option.
- You want to enhance the appearance of discoloured teeth.
- Elongating a shorter tooth is your desire.
- You have gaps between your teeth that you want to close.
- You need help to cover exposed tooth roots because of receding gums.
- You need tooth reshaping.
The Dental Bonding Process
Dental bonding at The Dental Roots, South Delhi is a straightforward process completed by our smile makeover team in one visit for anterior teeth with composite resin fillings.
The bonding process requires no preparation. However, you must undergo an examination to determine whether issues like tooth decay or gum disease affect you and have the conditions treated before you consider dental bonding. In addition, if you want to whiten your teeth after getting them bonded, we recommend whitening aka teeth bleaching before the bonding treatment. The cosmetic dentist at The Dental Roots makes the recommendation because they must choose the composite resin colour to match your remaining teeth closely, and getting dental bonding before whitening can make your smile appear different.
When getting your teeth bonded, we must rough the tooth’s surface with an etching solution to help the bonding material adhere to the tooth. A conditioning liquid is also applied to help the bonding process. Next, we use tooth-coloured resin to your teeth to mould and shape them. Next, your teeth are exposed to bright light to harden the resin. After the hardening, we trim, shape and polish your teeth and make them appear like your remaining ones.
The bonding process doesn’t require multiple appointments with The Dental Roots dentist because they complete the procedure taking merely 30 to 60 minutes per tooth.
How does Dental Bonding help Rejuvenate Your Smile?
If your dental flaws prevented you from smiling, the dental bonding treatment helps hide the imperfections enabling you to smile confidently instead of subconsciously. If the gaps between your teeth or your shorter teeth make you conscious about your appearance, the bonding treatment helps hide the defects to give you a beautiful smile. Thus, making it easier for you to get that red-carpet-worthy Hollywood smile makeover!
How long do they last?
The lifespan of dental bonding depends on the location of the tooth receiving the treatment and your mouth-related habits. However, the composite resin is durable and remains on your teeth for five to seven years when placed in cavities. Therefore, when you have your chipped or damaged teeth bonded and care for them appropriately, you can expect the resin to stay on your teeth for a decade or longer as long as you don’t indulge in harmful mouth-related habits that can chip and crack the bonding material.
The dental bonding treatment helps to rejuvenate your smile and boost your confidence. Therefore, if you have the dental imperfections discussed, kindly visit The Dental Roots to consult whether you are eligible for dental bonding. Smile in a short appointment.
