What is Dental Bonding?

Dental bonding is a cosmetic treatment that involves sculpting and shading of a composite resin putty material to resemble your natural dental structure. The putty is adhered to your existing tooth to act as a virtually indistinguishable extension, allowing your cosmetic dentist in Encinitas to artfully repair and enhance damaged, misspaced, and severely discolored teeth. We actually use this same composite resin material to fill cavities, as it creates a tight protective seal with your natural enamel and requires little to no alteration of your teeth.

Who is a Good Candidate for Dental Bonding?

The best candidates for dental bonding are those who have chipped, cracked, severely stained, and gapped teeth. We recommend this cosmetic treatment for those who:

  • Are self-conscious of their smile due to minor aesthetic imperfections.
  • Have good oral health and are free of cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues.
  • Want fast, timely results for an upcoming event, like a wedding or family photos.

If you feel like you can benefit from dental bonding, please contact our office today to schedule a consultation.
