How Dental Bonding Works

Dental bonding is quick and painless and typically completed in one visit. We begin by selecting a resin color that matches your natural teeth.

Your tooth’s surface is lightly roughened, and a conditioning liquid is applied. Then, the tooth-colored resin is placed, shaped, and hardened with a special curing light. Afterward, the bonded area is polished for a smooth, natural finish.

Following Your Dental Bonding

A follow-up visit may be necessary to check your gum’s response to the bonding. After your bonding, it’s best to avoid hard foods and limit coffee or tea to avoid staining.

If you have questions or have any issues with your dental bonding, please let us know.

FAQ

  • How long does dental bonding last?

    Dental bonding typically lasts 5 to 10 years, depending on the bonding and your oral hygiene. Avoiding hard foods, nail-biting, and staining drinks can extend the longevity of your bonding. Regular dental checkups will also help us maintain your bonding and repair damage.

  • What does completed dental bonding look like?

    Dental bonding naturally blends in with your surrounding teeth using a tooth-colored resin. The bonding is also carefully shaped and polished to match your natural enamel’s size, shape, and shade.

  • What foods and drinks should I avoid after dental bonding?

    After dental bonding, it is best to avoid foods and drinks that can stain or damage the bonded material, especially in the first 48 hours while the resin fully sets. This includes coffee, tea, red wine, dark sodas, berries, tomato-based sauces, soy sauce, ice, hard candy, and chewing gum.
