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. In deciding whether or not tooth bonding is right for you, it's important to become familiar with the Pacific, MO tooth bonding procedure.

Your tooth bonding procedure is a single visit to your Pacific, MO dental office. No inpatient care or all-day procedures. In most cases, 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 naturally with the color of your natural teeth.

Your dentist then 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.

Then the resin will be applied to the tooth. At this point in the tooth bonding procedure, the resin is in a putty-like form. The viscous material allows your dentist to carefully shape and mold the resin until it resembles a natural tooth to blend into your smile.

Lastly, 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 Pacific, MO tooth bonding procedure will be simple and painless. Your office visit can be done in under an hour and usually takens even less time. 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.
