Bolster Your Smile With Dental Bonding

A cosmetic procedure that involves the application of a tooth-coloured composite resin to rejuvenate chipped, cracked, and/or discoloured teeth, at Twin Dental in Edmonton, we know that dental bonding has the ability to update the appearance of your smile.

What is dental bonding and how is it placed on teeth?

Comprised of a composite resin material, bonding is applied directly to teeth that have been roughened and etched, which helps ensure that the material adheres properly. A conditioning liquid is then applied to further strengthen the bond between the resin and the enamel, and the composite material is placed and sculpted until it matches the desired shape of the tooth or teeth being treated. It is then hardened using a special light. Our dentist may also need to trim, polish, and contour the resin once it has cured.

What are the benefits of dental bonding?

Bonding can be used to repair chipped or cracked teeth, close gaps between teeth, and even update the shape and colour of teeth. It’s a fast, minimally invasive treatment that can be completed in just one visit to our office, and because it’s a more affordable option than other cosmetic treatments such as veneers or crowns, it can help patients update their smile on a budget.

Who is a suitable candidate for dental bonding?

Most adults with minor cosmetic dental issues can benefit from dental bonding. However, it is best to consult with our dentist first to ensure that you’re a candidate.
