By using his unique mix of dental training and artistic skill, Dr. Greenberg will rebuild the color, shape, and overall appearance of your tooth using a dental material. This composite resin material is made from a mix of tooth-colored plastic and glass. Dr. Greenberg will select a shade of resin that matches the color of the surrounding teeth for seamless integration into the smile.

Since Mouth Carolina Dentistry, PA knows that beauty ideals vary from patient to patient, the doctor will discuss your goals for the outcome of the procedure. A smile that is brighter and whiter than your natural teeth may be desired. If this is the case, Dr. Greenberg will provide options to treat other teeth so the bonded tooth is not too white when compared to your other teeth.

The tooth to be bonded requires little to no preparation. The popular alternative to dental bonding, porcelain veneers, do require preparation. In fact, a small amount of protective enamel must be removed from the tooth to receive the veneer. This allows the treated tooth to accommodate the thickness of the veneer, so the tooth will look natural.

A tooth is only slightly etched for bonding, just enough to texture the surface. Since existing enamel is not removed, dental bonding is considered a reversible procedure. If you are unhappy with the results of veneers, the solution is not as simple as merely removing them. If veneers are removed, your teeth will be more sensitive and prone to cavities. Since no enamel is removed during the bonding procedure, you avoid the discomfort associated with sensitivity caused by the removal of enamel.

After the tooth is roughened, Dr. Greenberg will spread on a thin layer of conditioning liquid. This helps resin adhere securely to your tooth structure. Once the tooth is prepared in this manner, Dr. Greenberg’s artistry will shine. The doctor will manipulate resin in its pliable form. The material is shaped and smoothed to correct chips, round a pointy tooth, close a gap, or lengthen a tooth worn down from habits such as grinding your teeth. A light hardens the putty-like resin onto your tooth.
