Dental Bonding: To improve a person’s smile, the dentist
undergoes many cosmetic surgeries but a simple technique of dental bonding can
be used to restore the beautiful smile. Dental bonding is a technique of
repairing decayed, cracked, discolored teeth by applying a resin (Plastic) of the same color as of tooth. The method is also used for filling the space between
the teeth and it can also change the shape of teeth. It is an easy way of the cosmetic dental procedure as it can be done in a single visit, unlike veneers.
The resin used is polished and shaped just to match with the other tooth.
Procedure: First of all, the Dentist will rough or scratch the
tooth surface and then applied a conditioner or bonding material on the tooth.
Then the resin like plastic material is applied and molded in the desired shape
of the tooth. The resin that is applied is liquid in nature; it is hardened by
the laser light. After hardening, the material is trim, shaped and polished to
match with the surroundings.
To maintain the beauty of the bonded teeth, a person should
avoid smoking and drinking caffeine substances like tea, coffee because this
resin material is stain resistant. It gat stained very easily. To avoid stain,
one should brush twice a daily and visit the dentist for good oral health.
The disadvantage of using tooth bonding is that the material
used can be a chip off easily while chewing nails, pens or any other hard
substance. Thus, routine checkups are necessary for ensuring oral health
hygiene and bonded tooth condition.
