5 Ways Dental Bonding Can Improve Your Smile

Dental bonding is a simple and pain-free cosmetic procedure that can fix minor imperfections with teeth. Everyone should be able to show off a smile that they are proud of, and many achieve the smile of their dreams through dental bonding treatment. 

Notable cosmetic benefits of dental bonding

The most notable reasons to consider dental bonding are to fill gaps between teeth, lengthen teeth that are too short, make teeth brighter by removing stains, and create an even smile free of any damage. The following is a review of each benefit of cosmetic dental bonding. 

Fill in gaps between teeth

One of the main reasons that dentists recommend dental bonding is to fill in gaps between teeth. Often, patients feel as if orthodontic care is the only way to fix gapped teeth. While large gaps may require orthodontic treatment, many small natural gaps can be addressed through bonding. This involves applying the composite resin material to the gaps and filling them before hardening it and smoothing and polishing the tooth for a beautiful finish. 

Lengthen teeth that are too short

Teeth that are too short can be lengthened with dental bonding. It can be done to teeth that are naturally not long enough or teeth that are damaged by chips and cracks. This provides the patient with a more aesthetically-pleasing smile and can protect damaged teeth from further harm. In addition, dental bonding does not require enamel removal so the procedure is reversible, which is not always the case with dental veneers. 

Cover severe teeth stains

Minor teeth stains can be repaired by professional, in-office teeth whitening. However, patients with more severe stains may not be able to remove the stains to the level that they desire. In these instances, dental bonding provides a better solution. Dental bonding is the perfect tooth color, and the dentist can ensure that the color closely matches all the other teeth in the mouth.

Repair chips and cracks

Chips and cracks often cause teeth to appear too short or misshapen. In addition, they increase the likelihood of oral health concerns. Dental bonding is one of the best and most recommended ways to improve a smile after chips and cracks occur. 

Create an even smile 

Dental bonding can address issues of misshapen and uneven teeth, providing the patient with an even and aesthetic-pleasing smile. While orthodontics may be necessary for more severe uneven teeth, minor issues can often be fixed by a simple dental bonding procedure that generally only requires one or two visits.
