Dental Bonding In Highland, IN

Bonding is a conservative way to repair slightly-chipped, discolored or crooked teeth, often for cosmetic purposes.

The bonding process involves placing a white filling on your tooth to improve its appearance. The tooth-colored filling "bonds" with your teeth and closely matches the appearance of your natural teeth. Bonding fillings can be used on front and back teeth, depending on the location and extent of tooth decay.

Bonding is usually less expensive than other cosmetic treatments and often can be completed in one visit to our office. However, bonding can stain and breaks more easily than other cosmetic treatments.

If your bonding does break or chip, please let us know. We can generally patch or repair bonding in one visit.

Why Is Dental Bonding Needed?

Dental bonding is a great choice for those who want to improve the look of their teeth without invasive procedures. It has long-lasting effects and effectively hides and fixes imperfections and flaws at the front of your smile. Bonding can successfully address and restore issues such as:

Gaps and spaces between teeth
Chips and cracks
Discoloration and staining
Uneven teeth

Who is Dental Bonding for?

Dental bonding is a cosmetic procedure that is gentle and usually does not necessitate anesthesia. It is appropriate for patients of all ages and can effectively treat a range of dental concerns. Our team will evaluate your specific requirements to determine if dental bonding is suitable and when it should be performed. Many patients choose bonding because of its durable results, making it a preferred option over alternatives.

The Dental Bonding Procedure?

To start the dental bonding process, we will first match the color of your teeth with the composite material that will be used. Next, we will gently file and roughen the surface of the tooth where the material will be applied. A bonding gel will be carefully applied and rinsed off. Then, the composite material will be placed over the tooth and smoothed out. To ensure its stability, we will use a bright light to cure the composite. Any necessary adjustments will be made before you leave our office. Dental bonding has the amazing ability to completely transform your smile, seamlessly blending in so that it becomes virtually undetectable.
