What is Cosmetic Bonding?
Cosmetic bonding is the process of using the same biocompatible composite resin that we use to fill cavities to improve the appearance of chipped or misshapen teeth. The tooth-colored resin is custom-shaded to match your natural enamel for beautifully integrated results, and due to its strong, tight seal that it creates, the results can last for several years withstanding basic use like chewing food. Oftentimes, our cosmetic dentists in Edison recommend bonding for patients experiencing the following:
- Chipped tooth
- Stained teeth that can’t be treated with teeth whitening
- Small gaps between teeth
- Misshapen teeth
The process is also minimally invasive, involving little-to-no alteration of your natural tooth structure, and fast, allowing you to enjoy results within a single appointment in most cases.
Who is a Good Candidate for Cosmetic Bonding?
The best candidates for cosmetic bonding are those who:
- Feel self-conscious about a minor cosmetic flaw: If a small chip or shortened tooth makes you feel hesitant about smiling, cosmetic bonding can help give you a much-needed confidence boost.
- Have healthy teeth: If your teeth are free of cavities and you don’t have untreated gum disease, you’re a great candidate for restorative treatments like cosmetic bonding.
- Are looking for quick and cost-effective treatment: As one of the most cost-effective cosmetic treatments available that offers same-day results, cosmetic bonding is excellent for those on a budget.
The Benefits of Cosmetic Bonding
In addition to being a versatile treatment that can address any aesthetic flaw from chipped teeth to slight discoloration that can’t be treated with teeth whitening, cosmetic bonding offers these benefits:
- Same-day results in most cases
- Results that last for years with good oral hygiene
- Easy maintenance
- Pain-free and simple process
- Similar results to veneers at a lower price point
