Do you have a chipped tooth that is making you less chipper? Here\u2019s a solution that will make you smile: Dental bonding is a procedure in which a soft composite resin (plastic) is fitted and molded over a chipped, cracked, or discolored tooth. The plastic is hardened using an ultraviolet light or laser, and the material bonds to the tooth. Bonding is cost and time effective and looks extremely natural once the plastic is shaped and polished to match the surrounding teeth.<\/p>\n
According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the most common application of bonding is to correct teeth that have chips in the enamel. Other cosmetic uses of dental bonding is to make teeth look longer, close gaps between teeth (most commonly, the front two teeth), brighten discolored teeth, and cover silver fillings that are visible when you smile. Outside of improving the appearance of teeth, dental bonding can also correct serious oral issues, including:<\/p>\n
\n
Smoothing over the edges of teeth that are rough, chipped, jagged, or worn down. Chipped or jagged teeth can catch on the tongue and cheeks, causing pain or tiny cuts. And teeth with untreated chips in the enamel are at higher risk for developing bigger chips, more tooth damage, infections, and cavities.<\/li>\n
Filling in small cavities. If you have a small cavity in a tooth that does not bear excessive force from chewing and biting, bonding is a good alternative to traditional amalgam fillings.<\/li>\n
Protecting exposed teeth roots. Exposed roots \u2013 caused by gum recession \u2013 can be sensitive or painful when you eat or drink hot and cold items. Bonding is used to shield the vulnerable root from pain and further damage.<\/li>\n
Changing the shape or size of teeth. Uneven teeth, or teeth with large spaces between them, can disturb normal bite patterns and put more pressure on the jaw and other teeth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
