Also referred to as bonded restoration, dental bonding is a painless way to mend damaged teeth. It is one of the least expensive cosmetic dentistry procedures and is utilized to solve a wide array of commonly encountered tooth problems. Composite resin material (a type of plastic) is joined (bonded) to the existing tooth thus restoring or even improving the form and function of the original. Gone are the days of ugly silver-mercury metal fillings or crowns. The color of our bonding material is chosen to blend perfectly with the rest of your teeth. Dental bonding typically results in a very natural appearance indistinguishable from the real tooth.
