Schedule an Appointment

What’s Included in Your Dental Bonding Appointment

Smile Assessment and Planning

We’ll examine the teeth you want to improve and discuss your goals. We’ll show you how bonding can address your specific concerns and explain what results you can expect.

Surface Preparation

We’ll gently prepare the tooth surface so the bonding material adheres properly. This typically requires minimal tooth removal compared to other cosmetic treatments.

Bonding Application

Using tooth-colored composite material, we’ll carefully apply, shape, and sculpt the bonding to match your natural teeth. We’ll match the color perfectly to blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth.

How Long Does Dental Bonding Last?

With proper care, dental bonding typically lasts five to ten years or longer. Brushing and flossing regularly, avoiding hard or sticky foods, and scheduling regular cleanings will extend the life of your bonding.

FAQ

Dental Bonding FAQ

How long does a bonding appointment take?

Most bonding appointments take 30 minutes to an hour, depending on how many teeth you’re bonding and the complexity of the work.

Can I eat and drink normally after bonding?

Yes. The bonding is fully hardened and ready for normal use immediately after your appointment. However, avoid very hard or sticky foods that could damage it.

Does bonding stain easily?

Composite bonding is more prone to staining than your natural tooth enamel, so it’s important to brush regularly and avoid staining foods and drinks.

Is bonding as strong as natural teeth?

Bonding is strong and durable, but not quite as hard as natural enamel. Avoid using your bonded teeth to open packages or bite hard objects.
