Why Dental Bonding?

We use dental bonding at our office.  Have you heard of it?  Bonding is essentially getting fillings glued to our front teeth, kind of like acrylic nails.  They can change the shade of our teeth, and they can even change the shape somewhat.  Because they are less expensive than other methods, they are a popular option for changing front teeth.  One of the best parts of dental bonding is that as time goes on, it can be easily repaired in the same visit.  This means no multiple visits for initially placing them, and short visits to change them or repair them.  Crowns and veneers take multiple visits.  If the porcelain chips or breaks on a crown or veneer, it must be replaced.

Composite bonding is also easily changed.  If you don't like the shape or the color, it is easy to replace or slightly modify the end product to your satisfaction.  Sometimes dental bonding can even be used in place of orthodontic appliances for those who don't want to wear braces.  Have you always wanted a different smile?  Dental bonding may be for you.  Check with Dr. Bradshaw to see if dental bonding can be used to make your front teeth into your dream smile!
