Dental bonding is a cosmetic dentistry treatment that uses tooth-colored dental resin to reshape and enhance your smile. This is similar to the composite material used for tooth-colored fillings. By applying dental resin directly to your teeth, Dr. Pham can change their shape, cover up stains, and enhance your smile.
This makes dental bonding a highly versatile solution that can treat lots of common cosmetic issues, including:
If you have a healthy mouth but are struggling with any of these cosmetic issues, you may be a good candidate for dental bonding in Vienna, VA. The best way to find out is with a cosmetic consultation from Dr. Pham.
As the first step, Dr. Pham will clean your teeth to remove any plaque and tartar that could interfere with the bonding treatment. Then, she will use a very mild acid solution to roughen up the surface of your tooth. This is harmless and is a necessary step to make sure the composite resin material can bond tightly to your natural enamel.
Next, Dr. Pham will select a tooth-colored resin that matches the surrounding teeth perfectly. She’ll apply the resin while it’s soft, then begin sculpting the composite material to reshape the tooth, add size, or address any other issues like stains and discoloration.
Once the overall shape of your tooth looks right, Dr. Pham will use a UV light to “activate” the resin and harden it. Then, she will trim away some of the resin to finalize the shape of the tooth and make sure it fits into your bite perfectly. The last step is to polish your smile to make sure your new tooth looks its best!
