One of the most prevalent
forms of cosmetic dentistry; dental bonding is typically chosen to restore
fragmented, chipped, or damaged teeth. The primary material being used in dental
bonding is composite resin. It is bonded with the tooth surface to fill, seal,
and streamline the broken or dented part.
Dental
bonding has become very popular as it can easily enhance the look
of your teeth. Especially, if you have decomposed, discolored, or spaced teeth.
This method will reinstate your self-confidence to smile freely again. Dental
bonding is perfect for a chiseled, broken, or cracked tooth and will also close
up the small openings or gaps between teeth. Alternatives to dental bonding
are Porcelain
Veneers, Dental Crowns, etc.
Advantages of Dental Bonding
➢ Bonding
will help your teeth look better, visibly alter the color, shape, and length of
your teeth, eradicate crowding, and close up spaces.
➢ Bonding
generally lasts for about five to eight years, after which it can be redone.
➢ Dental bonding
is a quick procedure and doesn’t take a lot of time to be completed. So it can
be easily completed in one single visit.
➢ No pain or
discomfort is experienced by the patient undergoing this procedure, not even
after the process is done.
➢ There is
no special upkeep required to maintain bonded teeth, one can brush and floss
teeth like customary.
➢ In
comparison to alternative procedures like porcelain veneers, the dental bonding
method is non-invasive, quicker, and cost-effective.
➢ The
bonding material is usually amalgamated to make it look like the actual color
of a patient’s teeth.
Disadvantages of Dental Bonding
➢ Coffee,
tea, red wine, and smoking will cause stains on the material used for dental
bonding.
➢ Dental bonding
is not long-lasting and usually has a limited shelf life.
➢ Once done,
extra precaution will have to be taken while eating, especially with hard food
items to evade chipping or cracking. This is because composite resin used for
bonding isn’t as robust as tooth enamel.
➢ Dental
bonding is only worthwhile if used to cover up inadequacies in the front part
of teeth but it can’t be used for major dental issues such as multiple lost
teeth, large fractures, etc.
