About the Tooth Bonding Experience

Bonding materials are oftentimes called composite resins, containing glass and plastic materials, which add translucency and strength to teeth. The composite bonds to the surface of the tooth being treated. When bonding is done, it is hard to determine the bonded tooth from others in the mouth. Bonding does last less time than other restorations such as dental veneers, but it doesn’t require the need of a dental lab or multiple visits, which is convenient for patients of all ages. With cosmetic dentistry in Marietta, Georgia, Dr. Hutson can repair damaged teeth with ease.

Tooth bonding typically can be achieved in just one visit. The surface of the tooth is cleaned and etched with an acidic gel that opens up tiny pores in the surface making it more susceptible to receiving the bonding material. This is rinsed off and the liquid composite resin is painted on in thin layers. A curing light is used to harden the material. After the procedure is over, the tooth is polished.

Bonded teeth should be cared for the same as any other teeth with regular brushing and flossing. With proper care, a bonded tooth can stay beautiful for years. With cosmetic dentistry in Marietta, Georgia from Dr. Hutson, your smile can be restored in just one dental visit.
