Flawed teeth can do more than just ruin your smile. It can rob you of joy, confidence, and self-esteem. Through cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Marcella Guzman can correct imperfections in your teeth to boost your smile’s appearance. Tooth bonding is an affordable cosmetic treatment that can enhance your smile in just one dental visit. At A Brush Above Family Dentistry, we offer dental bonding to our patients in Chicago, Illinois.
Sometimes, it’s the minor defects in your smile that stand out the most, making your teeth look dull, worn, or unappealing. Dr. Guzman can conceal these defects with tooth bonding to give your smile a smoother, more uniform appearance. Your Chicago dentist uses tooth-colored composite resin material for the bonding process. This pliable material is applied to compromised teeth and sculpted to conceal imperfections that detract from your smile’s appearance. It’s then hardened into place using a special light and polished to resemble your natural tooth enamel.
Dr. Guzman will match the color of the resin material to the color of your natural teeth so that it blends in perfectly with your smile. The entire process can be completed in one dental visit, enabling you to leave our clinic with a beautiful new smile.
Tooth bonding is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that can correct multiple imperfections in your smile to include:
By taking good care of your “new” teeth, you can enjoy beautiful results for years.
Through tooth bonding, Dr. Guzman can give your smile a wholesome, pleasing appearance so you can feel good about smiling again. You’ll no longer feel self-conscious or embarrassed about the state of your teeth. Improving your smile can give you a more positive outlook on life as you’ll have more confidence to socialize with others, advance your career, and live life to the fullest.
In addition to boosting your smile’s appearance, bonding can strengthen chipped, cracked, or broken teeth, making them less resistant to chipping and cracking in the future. You’ll have stronger, healthier teeth for biting and chewing. Bonding can even be used to conceal exposed tooth roots from receding gums to prevent tooth sensitivity when consuming hot or cold foods and drinks.
Bonded teeth don’t need special treatment to keep them in good shape. However, they require proper care, just like the rest of your teeth, to maintain their attractive appearance. This includes daily brushing and flossing and seeing your dentist regularly for dental cleanings. You should also avoid biting and chewing on hard objects (pencils, pens, etc.) and foods, as it could ruin your treatment or cause further damage to your teeth.
