Dental Bonding Also known as dental bonding, tooth bonding incorporates a resin that will fix teeth that have become cracked or chipped. When bonding is completed, the patient will have their confidence restored along with their healthy smile. And after you make an appointment with Mukilteo Smiles, you will be taken care of so that your dental bonding is a complete success.Why Teeth Bonding?Having material specifically for bonding enables the tooth to be repaired and correct all abnormalities that the teeth may have. Occasionally, a tooth will have bonding if discoloration of the tooth is present. However, the bonding is most often used to treat crack repair or decay. Having a bonding will also enable a tooth to look bigger in size as compared to other teeth. This would be the case when you have a tooth that is smaller by comparison. The bonding will create an equal height among them all. Normally, the time required for a bonding is one hour or less. Despite this, your dentist may require additional time if you have more than one tooth needing a bond. Risks with Dental BondingWhen it comes to the risks involved with bonding, you do not need to be concerned about them. Despite this, the amount of strength that a bonding provides is not equal to your natural tooth. Thus, you need to remember that the tooth may chip away the bonding over time. Other instances of chipping may also occur when you eat hard food. For this reason, hard foods should be avoided. Ensure that food and drinks that stain are also avoided, such as wine and coffee. Planning for your Dental Bonding ProcedureFirst, your dentist will determine if you will benefit from a dental bonding procedure. If your teeth have too much decay, then bonding will not initially be considered. You may require some treatments and procedures before we can perform a dental bonding procedure. There is no pre-planning required for your dental bonding procedure. It is a quick and painless procedure and does not require any anesthetic. Maintaining your Dental BondingMaking sure that your bonding is maintained is a great way to ensure that it lasts and does not chip. This means you need to keep your teeth brushed regularly. You also should have the bonding checked when you come in for regular dental visits to ensure it remains intact. Hard foods should be avoided to prevent possible chips. Your bonding will be able to last even longer when you avoid hard foods. The appearance of the bond will also look healthier. If chipping does take place among the bonding material, then our dentist should be consulted. After calling Mukilteo Smiles at (425) 438-2400, we will examine the bonding and ensure that it is repaired or replaced. |
