Dental bonding , also known as tooth bonding, is a procedure use to fix cosmetic and structural imperfections in the teeth. Dental bonding can repair cracked, chipped, and discolored teeth, It can also be used to fill gaps between the teeth called diastemas.
Your dentist uses a tooth-colored resin material (a durable plastic material) to bond to a tooth and correct certain imperfections or problems
Dental bonding is an option that can be considered:
- to repair decayed teeth (composite resins are used to fill cavities)
- to repair chipped or cracked teeth
- to improve the appearance of discolored teeth
- to close spaces between teeth
- as a cosmetic alternative to amalgam fillings
- to protect a portion of the tooth's root that has been exposed when gums recede
