Our teeth are susceptible to damage because we use them every day. In the event of a minor cosmetic issue, our dental experts can use tooth bonding to restore the appearance of your teeth for a beautiful smile you can feel proud of. 

Dental bonding, or tooth bonding, is a dental procedure that corrects minor issues like cracks, chips, or misshapen teeth. If you have cosmetic issues with your smile that you’d like corrected, we invite you to contact Symphony Dental Studio to learn more about dental bonding in San Francisco, CA. We will examine your smile and help determine the right type of dental procedure for your oral health, goals, and budget. 

What Can Dental Bonding Fix? 

At Symphony Dental Studio, we can use dental bonding to correct several cosmetic dental problems. Tooth bonding is a non-invasive procedure with long-lasting results, making it an ideal option for children in need of tooth restoration who may be too young for veneers or other treatments. Dental bonding may be great for you if you have any of the following issues with your teeth: 

• Chipped tooth
• Cracked tooth
• Gaps between teeth 
• Teeth with uneven shape or size 
• Stains or discoloration

You may have a cracked tooth without realizing it if you experience unexplained pain while eating, tooth sensitivity, or have difficulty locating the source of pain in your mouth. Contact our office today for a dental exam if you believe you have a cracked or damaged tooth. Dental bonding may be the perfect solution to repair your smile and confidence!

The Dental Bonding Procedure

Dental bonding is performed in just one office visit and is non-invasive, so local anesthetic is not necessary. Prior to treatment, we will place a rubber piece or gauze in your mouth to keep the area dry. To prepare the tooth or teeth, we will apply a gentle solution to the enamel to etch the tooth’s surface. This etching helps the bonding material adhere to the tooth. 

Then, we will apply a tooth-colored composite resin material to the areas on your teeth you wish to improve. We can mold the resin as needed to achieve the desired shape, then we will use an ultraviolet light to harden the resin. Once hardened, we will polish the area for a beautiful, natural-looking finish. 

How Long Does Dental Bonding Last? 

Your dental bonding can last for many years before needing a replacement. Keeping your teeth clean with regular brushing and flossing will help prevent damage or decay and keep your teeth looking great. An important way to extend the longevity of your tooth bonding results is to avoid sticky, hard foods or chewing on anything that could crack the resin.
