Composite Bonding

Dental bonding is a procedure in which a tooth-colored resin material (a durable plastic material) is applied and hardened with a special light, which ultimately "bonds" the material to the tooth  to restore or improve person's smile.  Composite Bonding is used:

•To repair decayed teeth  (composite resins are used to fill cavities)
•To repair chipped or cracked teeth
•To improve the appearance of discolored teeth
•To close spaces between teeth
•To make teeth look longer
•To change the shape of teeth
•As a cosmetic alternative to amalgam fillings
•To protect a portion of the tooth's root that has been exposed when gums recede
