Dental Bonding in New York

Bonding can be used as a restorative procedure for teeth that are chipped, cracked, discolored or misarranged, and is an alternative to veneers.

How does it work?

The tooth is prepared for the procedure by lightly etching the surface and applying a bonding liquid. Once the liquid sets, a plastic resin is applied and sculpted into the desired shape by the cosmetic dentist. Once set, the resin is trimmed, smoothed and polished to a natural appearance.

 

 

Considerations

The bonding procedure can often be completed in a single visit to our Yorktown Heights, NY office, and can improve the appearance of a tooth significantly. However, since the plastic resin used is not as strong as your natural tooth enamel, it is more likely to stain, chip or break than natural teeth. Bonding typically lasts three to five years before repair is needed.
