Bonding

Sometimes a little change can give your smile a big boost. Dental bonding could be all you need to mask minor imperfection for a smile that makes you proud. Men and women from Menifee to Murrieta, Beaumont to Perris, and beyond trust Dr. Nathan Jergensen at Diamond Valley Dentist in Hemet, CA for sensible dental advice, technical precision, and artistry in cosmetic procedures.

What is cosmetic dental bonding?

Composite bonding is a BPA-safe dental resin that starts out pliable but is hardened with a curing light into a strong, durable restoration that looks very natural. It is like the material used for white fillings.

Teeth bonding is a versatile procedure. Dr. Jergensen can sculpt and trim the composite to camouflage a variety of cosmetic concerns:

• Bonding chipped teeth hides flaws and, since the repair is fused to natural tooth structure, it helps to avoid further breakage.
• Bonding a cracked tooth or bonding a broken tooth also corrects appearance and provides protection.
• Bonding can improve your smile by closing gaps between teeth.
• Bonding is a remedy for minor misalignment. Crooked teeth can look straight and evenly spaced with this treatment.
• Bonding can bring teeth with unusual shape or size into more attractive uniformity.
• Bonding can be used to make teeth look longer, improving the proportions of a “gummy” smile.
• Bonding repairs worn-down teeth.
• Stubborn discoloration (including tetracycline staining or old darkened dental work) can be concealed with bonding.
• Silver-colored fillings can be replaced with white composite bonding material.

Why Hemet, CA patients choose dental bonding

Bonding can be an affordable alternative to porcelain veneers to correct minor cosmetic faults. Bonding is also removable, whereas veneers are generally considered permanent.  Cosmetic bonding is completed in one visit (treatment takes about an hour per tooth), and often numbing is not needed. Bonding requires no special care – just brush teeth at least twice a day, floss at bedtime, and maintain regular checkup appointments

Dental bonding may be all the enhancement your smile requires, or it can be part of a comprehensive smile makeover strategy including whitening, veneers, crowns, dental implants, or other treatments.
