Bonding
Cosmetic Bonding is a non intrusive technique which may be suitable for you if you have minor gaps between your teeth, minor chips or fractures in your teeth or wish to change the shape or colour of your teeth.
A dental composite resin or enamel-type material is applied to the surface of your tooth. The dentist sculpts this bonding material around the tooth in order to create the required shape, colour, size and finish and achieve an aesthetically pleasing result.
The composite resin used in many cosmetic dental procedures such as cosmetic bonding also have the advantage of bonding and expanding with your natural teeth. This reduces the likelihood of fractures and cracks occurring as is common with mercury and amalgam materials.
