Bonding can yield dramatic results in a
single office visit. Essentially, bonding hides any natural flaws
through the placement of a thin plastic coating on the front surface
of the teeth. After treating the tooth surface a bonding material
is applied which is then sculpted, shaped and colored to suit your
individual needs. A high-intensity light causes the plastic to harden
after which the new surface is smoothed and polished. Bonding can
lighten stains, close gaps and even alter crooked or malformed teeth.
It can be utilized to change the shape or color of a single tooth
or if necessary to reconstruct the entire smile.
