Tooth Bonding Procedure

You are looking for an easy way to fix a damaged tooth or an imperfection in your smile, and you've realized that tooth bonding could be the perfect answer for your dental needs. Before you book your tooth bonding appoinment, you should know what to expect from the Frontenac, MO tooth bonding procedure.

The tooth bonding procedure requires nothing more than a simple visit to your Frontenac, MO dental office. You will be in and out in a matter of minutes. Typically, no anesthesia is necessary.

First, you and your dentist must work to determine the resin color that most closely matches the natural color of your teeth. Your dentist will use charts and samples to ensure that the resin blends in seamlessly with the color of your natural teeth.

Next, your dentist prepares the surface of the tooth or teeth that require the tooth bonding procedure. Slightly roughening the affected tooth's surface allows the resin to form a stronger attachment to the tooth, similar to the principle sculptors use, scoring individual pieces of pottery before sticking them together. Once the tooth's surface is prepared, they will also add a liquid bonding agent to help the resin attach.

Then the resin will be applied to the tooth. At this point in the tooth bonding procedure, the resin is maliable - a putty substance. This consistency is carefully shaped and molded until it resembles a natural tooth to blend into your smile.

Once it has been shaped, the resin is cured and set using UV light. The UV light hardens the resin into a hard, tooth-like consistency. Your dentist is still able to make alterations to the shape and size after the resin hardens. This is the perfect time for additional finishing touches such as minor adjustments to the shape and polishing to add a shine.

There you have it: your Frontenac, MO tooth bonding appointment is simple and painless. Your office visit can be done in under an hour and often in as little as 30 minutes. However, patients getting multiple teeth treated will be in for a longer procedure. If you have several affected teeth that need tooth bonding, you may want to break it up into separate visits to avoid a lengthy visit.
