Dental Bonding in Brampton

Dental bonding is a simple, painless, and affordable procedure that has many uses, including:

• Repairing chipped or cracked teeth
• Closing spaces between teeth
• Reshaping teeth
• Covering badly stained teeth

Bonding involves the application of a tooth-colored resin. The dentist prepares the tooth for bonding by placing a mild chemical on it to roughen the surface. Using a shade guide, the dentist selects a shade that closely matches your tooth and then mixes and tints the resin. The resin is applied in thin layers and then hardened with an ultraviolet light or laser. The dentist then shapes and polishes the resin to smooth it and give it a natural look.

The procedure usually takes about 30-60 minutes to complete. You can even get several teeth bonded in one visit. No special techniques are needed to care for bonded teeth-- just good oral hygiene.
