Charleston dentist discusses when dental bonding may be right for you

Beautiful new tooth structure can be created at Mouth Carolina Dentistry, PA with advanced dental materials and techniques that make the treated tooth indistinguishable from a natural, healthy one. Your cosmetic dentist in Charleston offers dental bonding to resize, reshape, or restore flawed, gapped, or severely stained teeth. While veneers correct many of the same smile problems, there is no single approach that works for every patient. Budgetary constraints may make bonding a preferred method to correct the appearance of your teeth.

Dr Greenberg discusses when dental bonding may be right for you

The consultation

Dr. Greenberg thoroughly examines your teeth and gums, checking for underlying conditions that may be responsible for issues you want to correct. For example, dark discoloration can be a sign of trauma to the inner tooth structure, which requires restorative and not merely cosmetic procedures to bring the tooth back to health. The doctor uses a shade guide to match the color of the dental material to surrounding teeth for a uniform appearance or to reveal a whiter smile for visible teeth.

The procedure

One of the benefits of bonding over porcelain veneers is that no natural tooth structure is removed to make way for the artificial tooth enamel. Whenever enamel is removed, there are risks of tooth sensitivity. Since the tooth isn’t reduced, bonding is considered a reversible procedure. Veneers require at least two visits, whereas bonding can be completed in a single appointment.

After the surface of the treated tooth is etched for superior bonding strength, the composite is applied. Dr. Greenberg uses his artistic skills to shape the putty-like composite as needed for your specific case. A UV light-equipped device hardens the material to the surface of your tooth. Then final modifications, such as trimming and polishing, are made.
