Do you want to improve your smile with cosmetic treatment? For many patients, we could offer improvement in one sitting with dental bonding and contouring. In today’s blog, your Ankeny, IA, dentist talks about same-day cosmetic treatment with bonding and contouring procedures, so we can offer correction and repair for multiple cosmetic issues, providing a makeover for your smile in some cases!
The Cosmetic Benefits of Dental Bonding
The dental bonding process involves applying a metal-free composite resin to the teeth, the same we use in our lifelike dental fillings. The material can be shaded to blend with your smile, and mask common esthetic imperfections. For example, we can repair minor chips and cracks, lengthen worn down teeth, and fill gaps and black triangle spaces between the teeth. They process can also take on misshapen teeth too and improve overall bite balance.
How We Restore Teeth with Composite Resin
The procedure only takes one visit to complete. We start by numbing the tooth with a local anesthetic to ensure you are comfortable while we remove any decay and then clean the tooth. We may etch the outer surfaces too. Our team then applies the material in several layers, sculpting and molding the tooth to ensure proper balance and a lifelike appearance. The last step is to polish the tooth to ensure a bright appearance. In one visit, we can take on multiple imperfections!
Dental Contouring
Our team could also take on imperfections in only one visit with dental contouring. With this option, we will sand and buff the outer structure to reshape teeth and address common esthetic issues. For example, we can smooth away any pits, grooves, or rough patches in the outer surfaces of your teeth. The contouring process can also dull any parts of your teeth that are sharp, jagged, or pointed. The procedure can also address overly large or misshapen teeth and even correct the appearance of minor chips too. We could conduct bonding and contouring in the same visit too!
