Tooth Bonding Procedure

You have a minor cosmetic dental flaw or damaged tooth, and now you know that tooth bonding is the perfect treatment for your dental needs. Before you book your tooth bonding appoinment, you should know what to expect from the St. Ann, MO tooth bonding procedure.

Your tooth bonding procedure requires nothing more than a simple visit to your St. Ann, 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 select 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, 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 that will hold the resin to the tooth.

Then the resin will be applied to the tooth. During this step in the tooth bonding procedure, the resin is maliable - a putty substance. 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 with the application of UV light. The UV light transforms the resin into a hard, tooth-like consistency. After the resin is hardened, your dentist can still perform additional finishing touches such as minor shaping tweaks and polishing to add a shine.

If you didn't know before, now you do: the St. Ann, MO tooth bonding appointment is simple and painless. The entire process can be done in under an hour and often in as little as 30 minutes. The length of time increases, however, if you are having multiple teeth treated with tooth bonding. In this case, one option is to break it up into separate sittings to avoid a lengthy visit.
