Bonding is perfect for fixing chips, cracks, discoloration, or small gaps — and it's one of the easiest ways to boost your smile with natural-looking results.
What Is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is a cosmetic procedure that uses tooth-colored composite resin to restore and reshape teeth. It’s applied directly to the tooth surface, sculpted into the ideal shape, and hardened with a curing light.
Bonding is ideal for patients who want to:
- Repair chipped or cracked teeth
- Close small gaps between teeth
- Improve the appearance of discolored teeth
- Reshape uneven or slightly misaligned teeth
- Cover exposed tooth roots due to gum recession
Benefits of Dental Bonding
- Fast & Convenient – Completed in a single visit
- Minimally Invasive – Little to no enamel removal required
- Affordable – Lower cost than veneers or crowns
- Natural Appearance – Color-matched to blend seamlessly with your smile
- Reversible – Does not permanently alter the tooth structure
Bonding is often used in smile makeovers or as a quick touch-up before big events like weddings or interviews.
What to Expect During the Procedure
- Consultation & Shade Matching
We’ll evaluate your smile, select the perfect shade, and discuss your goals. - Tooth Preparation
The tooth surface is lightly etched and coated with a bonding agent to help the resin adhere. - Application & Sculpting
The composite resin is applied, shaped, and smoothed to correct the flaw. - Hardening & Polishing
A special curing light is used to set the resin. We then polish the tooth for a natural finish.
Most bonding procedures take 30 to 60 minutes per tooth — and you can resume normal activities immediately afterward.
Is Dental Bonding Right for You?
Dental bonding is best for patients with small cosmetic concerns and healthy teeth and gums. If you’re looking to make major aesthetic changes, we may recommend veneers or Invisalign as part of a more comprehensive plan.
We'll walk you through all your options so you can choose the treatment that works best for your goals and budget.
