To help your smile, we can correct multiple cosmetic issues in one visit. With bonding and contouring, we can help your smile look great! In today’s blog, your team at Dental Impressions in Ankeny, IA, talks about helping smiles with a bonding and contouring. In one sitting, we can offer stunning results that help you feel confident again.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding helps smiles in one visit using the same composite resin as our tooth-colored dental fillings. The composite resin can be shaded to blend with your tooth, but the material can also bond with the structure, providing repair and masking cosmetic imperfections for years to come. The placement process only takes one visit. We clean the tooth, etch the outer surface, and apply the material in several layers. We then shape your tooth as the composite resin cures under a light. The final step is to polish the tooth for a brighter appearance. In one sitting, we can cover teeth stains, fill in gaps between the teeth, reshape malformed structures, and even lengthen worn-down teeth!
Cosmetic Contouring
We can also help smiles in one visit with a cosmetic contouring procedure. With this option, we don’t need to add new materials to the tooth. Instead, our team will gently sand and buff the outer structure to correct esthetic imperfections. Our team can smooth away portions that are grooved, pitted, or rough. We can then dull portions that are pointed, jagged, or sharp. We can even correct the appearance of minor chips or overly large structures, all in one visit.
Keeping Your Smile Bright
To keep your smile bright and protect it from issues that could impact appearance, such as tooth decay and gum disease, you need to see our team for a checkup and cleaning every six months. We can then monitor your smile and offer help to address issues in their earliest stages. We then clean the teeth to remove plaque and tartar. At home, you should brush and floss daily to fight harmful buildup and protect your smile. Lowering the amount of sugar in your diet is also helpful, as is avoiding any tobacco products.
If you have any questions about how we reshape your smile and correct cosmetic issues in one visit, then see our team so we can help your smile with bonding and contouring. You deserve a smile that looks great, and we want to help. At the same time, these treatments cans offer boosts for your smile’s health and function too.
