Tooth Bonding Procedure

You have a minor cosmetic dental flaw or damaged tooth, and now you know that tooth bonding is the perfect answer for your dental needs. In deciding whether or not tooth bonding is right for you, you should know what to expect from the Rock Hill, MO tooth bonding procedure.

Your tooth bonding procedure is a quick visit to your Rock Hill, 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 match samples and use a chart to make sure that the resin blends in naturally with the color of your natural teeth.

Next, your dentist prepares the surface of the tooth or teeth that require 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, like how sculptors score individual pieces of pottery before sticking them together. After preparing the surface of the tooth, you dentist will also add a liquid bonding agent that will hold the resin to the tooth.

Then 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. The viscous material is carefully shaped and molded until it resembles a natural tooth to blend into your smile.

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.

There you have it: your Rock Hill, MO tooth bonding appointment is simple and painless. Your office visit can be done in under an hour and usually takens even less time. The length of time increases, however, if you are having multiple teeth treated with tooth bonding. In this case, one option is to schedule a couple of separate sittings to avoid a lengthy visit.
