Bonding and White Filling

Bonding is a popular method to enhance the look of your smile. Bonding can be used to correct cracks or gaps in teeth, as a filling after a cavity has been removed, or to cover up stains on discolored teeth.

A composite resin is used on the affected tooth or teeth. It is molded and sculpted over an adhesive gel that is placed on the tooth. After the resin has been applied, an ultraviolet light is used to harden the resin, which is then polished to give you a fresh, new smile.

Bonding is an obvious improvement over unsightly silver amalgam fillings. Thanks to advancements in dental technology, bonding usually lasts for more than 10 years. It is a safe, affordable, and attractive solution for many dental problems.
