How is Dental Bonding Placed?

Over time your teeth may become decayed or discolored, and if that happens, it can make you very self-conscious about your smile. No one should ever feel embarrassed to show off their pearly whites, and if something ever happens, you can ask our Beverly Hills dentist about getting a dental bonding treatment.

Dental bonding is a procedure in which a tooth-colored resin material is applied directly to the teeth and then hardened with a special light. Very little preparation is needed, and it generally only takes about 30 to 60 minutes to apply the bonding to each tooth.

Dental bonding is one of the easiest and least expensive dental procedures to perform. Our expert in dental bonding in Beverly Hills will generally not have to use anesthesia, which means there is little to no downtime following the procedure. The surface of your teeth will need to be roughened, and then a conditioning liquid will be applied. Next, the bonding agent will be applied, molded, and smoothed so that it meets the desired specifications. Once the material has hardened, our expert can trim and polish it so that it matches the look of the rest of the teeth.
