Tooth Bonding Procedure

You have a minor cosmetic dental flaw or damaged tooth, and now you know that tooth bonding is the ideal treatment for your dental needs. Before you book your tooth bonding appoinment, it's important to become familiar with the Jennings, MO tooth bonding procedure.

The tooth bonding procedure is a simple visit to your Jennings, MO dental office. No inpatient care or all-day procedures. Typically, no anesthesia is necessary.

The first step is to determine the exact resin color to use. Your dentist will match samples and use a chart to ensure that the resin blends in seamlessly with the color of your natural teeth.

Next, your dentist readies the surface of the tooth or teeth being treating in the tooth bonding procedure. To ensure that the resin effectively attaches to your existing tooth, they must roughen the surface where it will be attached, similar to the principle sculptors use, scoring individual pieces of pottery before sticking them together. After preparing the surface of the tooth, they will also apply a liquid bonding agent to help the resin attach.

Next your dentist will apply the resin to your tooth. During this step in the tooth bonding procedure, the resin is in a putty-like form. This consistency is carefully shaped and molded to the desired shape to take on the appearance of a natural tooth.

Lastly, the resin is cured and set with the application of 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.

If you didn't know before, now you do: the Jennings, MO tooth bonding procedure 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.
