What Makes Dental Bonding a Good Choice

Dental bonding is a good choice for those with minor teeth imperfections who are seeking a quicker, affordable solution. It is safe, effective, and available for most age groups. Dental bonding can also help strengthen teeth weakened by chips and cracking, preventing further damage.

A great advantage of dental bonding is that it can be matched to your tooth shade, so it looks like your natural tooth. Made from a composite resin, dental bonding is durable and is estimated to last 5 to 10 years. Some dental bonding can last much longer with proper care.

The Limitations of Dental Bonding

Dental bonding has some boundaries. It cannot resolve more complex problems such as wide gaps between teeth, severely decayed teeth, or extreme discoloration. Those will require different procedures. Dental bonding also does not change the shade of teeth, unlike teeth whitening. It can become more pronounced once you get whitening, so be sure the dental bonding shade is the one you want. You can get a lighter shade if you plan to have a teeth-whitening session. Your Avero Dental professional can advise you.

FAQ

Can dental bonding fix a broken tooth?
In some cases, yes. We would need to evaluate the tooth to recommend a repair option.
It depends on the case, but many dental bonding appointments can be done in an hour.
Dental bonding doesn’t react to whitening agents. Discuss with your dentist whether you should lighten your bond shade to match the whitening shade you are seeking or get your teeth whitened before bonding to match the shade.
Dental bonds are expected to last at least 5 years, but many last much longer with good maintenance.

FAQs

What is dental bonding?
A tooth coloured resin applied directly to the tooth and shaped to repair a chip, close a small gap, or cover a stain. It is usually completed in one visit.
How long does bonding last?
Around five to ten years depending on where it is and your habits. Biting nails or chewing ice will shorten that.
Is bonding better than a veneer?
Bonding is faster, less expensive, and removes little or no enamel. Veneers last longer and resist staining better. We will talk through which suits your situation.
Does bonding stain?
Composite resin can pick up stain over time from coffee, tea, and tobacco, and unlike natural enamel it does not respond to whitening. It can be polished or replaced.
