What is Teeth Bonding?
Teeth bonding, also known as dental bonding, is a cosmetic dental procedure offered at Legacy Dental Team. It is utilized to enhance the appearance of teeth by repairing chips, cracks, gaps, or discoloration. During the bonding process, a tooth-colored resin material is applied to the tooth and then hardened with a special light, bonding it to the tooth’s surface. This procedure helps to restore the natural appearance of the tooth and enhance the overall smile.
When Is Teeth Bonding Needed?
Teeth bonding may be needed in various situations where individuals seek to address cosmetic imperfections or structural damage in their teeth. This procedure is commonly recommended to repair chipped or cracked teeth, fill in gaps between teeth, improve the appearance of discolored teeth, or reshape misaligned or irregularly shaped teeth. Additionally, teeth bonding can be utilized to protect exposed tooth roots due to gum recession or to provide an alternative to traditional metal fillings. At Legacy Dental Team, our skilled team evaluates each patient’s unique dental needs to determine if teeth bonding is the appropriate solution for achieving their desired smile aesthetics and functionality.
