Dental bonding may not be as popular as veneers, but it can produce comparable results when boosting your smile’s esthetics. At Creekside Center for Comprehensive Dentistry, Dr. Shirin Hamed and our team use dental bonding for gaps, stains, chips, and cracks in your teeth to give your smile a smooth, unblemished appearance. Through cosmetic teeth bonding, your Vacaville, California dentist can transform your imperfect smile into one that radiates health and beauty in one dental visit.
Like veneers, bonding masks imperfections in your teeth to give your pearly whites a pleasing appearance. Here are five ways we can perfect your smile with cosmetic bonding:
Few people look good with gaps between their teeth except for a few celebrities. To close large gaps, we recommend orthodontics. Small gaps, however, respond well to dental bonding. Dr. Hamed will apply tooth-colored resin material to your teeth and mold it to fill the gap naturally. After achieving the desired results, we’ll cure the mixture using UV light to permanently harden it in place. Lastly, we’ll polish your teeth, giving your smile a smooth, seamless appearance.Â
Teeth whitening is often the treatment to correct problems with stained or discolored teeth. Not all stains, however, respond well to bleaching agents. Dr. Hamed may recommend erasing tooth stains with dental bonding in those cases. Bonding will make stains and discolorations disappear, giving your smile a whiter, brighter appearance.
When your teeth are different sizes and shapes, your smile can appear imbalanced. Dr. Hamed can use bonding to “customize” the size or shape of irregular teeth to make your smile more uniform and even. Dental bonding can make thin teeth look wider, small teeth appear larger, and misshapen teeth blend in with the rest of your pearly whites to make your smile more aesthetically pleasing.
Chips and cracks in your teeth aren’t always avoidable. After all, tooth enamel is tough but not indestructible. Fortunately, you can spruce up a chipped or cracked smile with dental bonding. Bonding erases those chips and cracks and strengthens your teeth to prevent future damage. Your teeth will look and feel as good as new!
In the hands of a skilled cosmetic dentist like Dr. Hamed, bonding can correct minor tooth alignment issues to make your smile appear straight and even. Rather than waiting months for orthodontics to straighten your teeth, you can instantly get a perfectly aligned smile with dental bonding. However, major alignment problems that impact your bite and chewing are best corrected with orthodontics.
