In only one visit, we could offer improvement for the color and shape of your teeth. To do so, our team will conduct dental bonding and contouring! In today’s blog, your Grand Prairie, TX, dentist talks about how we provide same-day cosmetic treatment with bonding and contouring. We want to help you smile with confidence again, and to do so we can correct your smile’s imperfections, often in only one sitting!
The Dental Bonding Process
Dental bonding actually uses the same material as our lifelike tooth fillings. Composite resin is a blend of glass-like and acrylic-like particles, which we can shade to blend with your tooth. The material is metal-free and safe for all ages! The procedure only takes one sitting to complete. We will numb your tooth or teeth to ensure you are comfortable and then remove any decay. We then clean the tooth and may etch the outer surface.
We apply the composite resin in multiple layers, and then sculpt and mold the tooth as the material cures. The entire process only takes one visit to complete, and can take on multiple cosmetic imperfections at once.
Helping Your Smile Look Great
Dental bonding can allow us to mask the permanent teeth stains that may not respond to traditional teeth whitening treatments. Our team could also use the procedure to address misshapen teeth and to even repair minor chips and cracks in the tooth. Placement could also length teeth worn down by bruxism (teeth grinding). We could even fill gaps and black triangle spaces between your teeth. For some, this is a smile makeover in only one visit! We could also whiten your teeth beforehand so your new results match your brightest possible smile.
Contouring Your Tooth
We also have another same-day cosmetic treatment with dental contouring. We don’t need to add new material to your tooth with this option, instead we gently reshape your tooth by sanding and buffing the outer structure. When we do, we can gently smooth away any pits, grooves, and rough patches in the outer tooth structure. The same process can dull any sharp, jagged, or pointed portions of your smile. The contouring process can correct the appearance of minor chips and even address overly large or misshapen teeth. We could combine this with whitening and bonding too, helping makeover your smile in one sitting.
