Did you know that we can treat or mask multiple esthetic issues in only one visit? With dental bonding and contouring, we could offer same day results before the holidays arrive! In today’s blog, your Ankeny, IA, dentist talks about same-day cosmetic treatment with dental bonding and contouring!
Your Initial Cosmetic Consultation
If you want to see improvements for the appearance of your smile, then schedule a cosmetic consultation with our team. We look forward to the chance to sit down with you and discuss what you hope to see improved. We then take a close look at your teeth with advanced digital imaging, so we can assess the cause and severity of your concerns. From there, we can create a treatment plan to bring relief and offer improvement, and in only one sitting! A visit now is a chance to see results before the holidays arrive, and you can also use your remaining dental insurance benefits and health savings account funds before they expire at the end of the month! We would love to help you greet 2026 with an amazing new smile.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding can correct cosmetic issues in one visit. We use the same composite resin employed as part of our tooth-colored tooth fillings, a metal-free material that can be shaded to blend with your smile, and one that is biocompatible and bonds with the structures too. Placement involves numbing your tooth, etching the surface and applying the material in several layers. We then sculpt and mold the tooth as the composite resin cures under a light. The last step is to polish your tooth for a brighter appearance.
With dental bonding, our team can help mask permanent teeth stains, fill in exposed gaps between the teeth, and even reshape malformed or damaged teeth. We could add length to worn down teeth too!
Contouring
The dental contouring procedure takes a very different approach. We don’t need to add new materials to the tooth. Instead, we can simply sand and buff the outer structure to reshape portions and correct the teeth, addressing several issues all at once. For example, we can smooth out grooves, pits, and rough portions of your outer tooth structure. We can dull sharp, jagged, and pointed parts of your smile too. Our team could reshape chipped teeth and modify overly large structures too.
If you have any questions about how we transform your smile in one visit with bonding and contouring, then reach out to our team today to get started.
