What is tooth bonding?

Bonding procedures have been one of the best procedures in dentistry. With bonding we can repair teeth, reshape teeth, and re-shade teeth. There are just so many ways that we can improve smiles with bonding because it matches your teeth, or brightens your teeth. Even though it may be one of the simplest procedures, it can be one of the most advantageous, because you can leave with a beautiful smile the same day.

If you have a crack too small for a crown or a chip that is not big enough for a veneer, you may be the perfect candidate for tooth bonding. Dr. Betts can artistically apply a tooth-colored resin to repair your flaw, allowing your tooth to blend in perfectly with the rest of your smile. Take care of the little problems with your teeth with tooth bonding. For cavities, we can use this same resin material to offer tooth-colored fillings, which will help keep your mouth healthy and your smile bright.
