Patients who have minor cosmetic flaws can highly benefit from a dental bonding treatment. If bonding is one of your options, read on to discover its advantages when it comes to the procedure, cost and oral health benefits.
Less expensive
Nowadays, many people desire to improve their smile but not everyone can afford it. Fortunately, some treatments are less expensive yet offer almost the same advantages as the costly ones. Like professional teeth whitening, dental bonding is less expensive than dental veneers or crowns. In addition, some dental insurance plans cover most of the dental bonding cost, especially if it’s used to fill a cavity or done for structural reasons.
Speed
If you are time-poor, then dental bonding is the perfect procedure for you. This treatment only requires one dental visit and the entire process can typically be completed within 30 to 60 minutes per tooth.
Ease
Dental bonding doesn’t usually use anaesthesia unless the dentist needs to fill a decayed tooth. Additionally, unlike veneers and crowns, bonding only removes a small portion of the dental enamel to roughen the tooth a little to help the resin adhere better to the teeth.
Oral Health Benefits
The composite resin used in dental bonding can treat cavities and other forms of tooth damage. It can stop the spread of decay and fortifies the walls of the tooth. Moreover, the material forms a strong bond with the inner part of your teeth, which allows the composite resin to strengthen the decayed teeth more effectively.
Aesthetic Benefits
Dental bonding is best for minor dental cosmetic imperfections. The bonding material can lighten your smile, close gaps between two teeth, make your teeth look longer and more proportionate, make your teeth look straighter and since the composite resin matches the colour of your biological teeth, it will be virtually identical to your enamel and someone who’s standing at a very close distance won’t notice your bonded teeth.
Though dental bonding doesn’t require special care, you still need to take care of them to keep their natural-looking colour and strength. Here are some useful tips to keep your bonded teeth strong and long lasting:
