Teeth Bonding

What is teeth bonding?

Dental bonding is a really versatile treatment that can both restore the function of your teeth and the appearance of your teeth. Dr. Slootsky at Artistic Dentistry will use a composite resin to restore the strength and appearance of your teeth.

What can bonding repair?

Teeth bonding can repair your smile fast!

• Broken Teeth
• Chipped Teeth
• Discolored Teeth
• Lengthen Teeth
• Change the Shape of Teeth
• Repair Decay
• Alternative to amalgam fillings
• Close the Gaps Between Teeth

During an initial consultation, Dr. Jodi will work closely with you to determine whether or not teeth bonding will be an effective repair for your chipped, discolored, or damaged tooth. Dr. Slootsky at Artistic Dentistry will perform a thorough examination to decide whether or not tooth bonding is the appropriate treatment for your long-term oral health goals. If you are in need of a stronger or more permanent repair, your dentist may suggest that you consider veneers or a crown.

Benefits of teeth bonding

Tooth bonding can make an immediate difference in your smile.

• Restore chipped or cracked teeth
• More cost-effective than veneers
• Enhance the shape and color of your teeth
• Less tooth preparation and enamel loss than veneers

Although tooth bonding is generally an inexpensive cosmetic dentistry procedure, and, unlike veneers or crowns, dental bonding does not require the removal of enamel, it is not as long-lasting as other cosmetic procedures.

It is important to note that bonding is not a sufficient treatment for people who have more serious tooth damage.

How is teeth bonding performed?

Teeth bonding is a simple, fast procedure.

Dr. Slootsky can generally complete your bonding in one visit. During an initial consultation, your dentist will match the shade of your teeth so that the composite resin used will blend in with your teeth. We will then prepare your tooth by etching it and applying a liquid that will help the bonding material adhere to your tooth. Once the material hardens, Dr. Jodi will shape the tooth.

How much does bonding cost?
