If you have esthetic issues with the shape and color of your teeth, you could hide your smile from the world. But what if instead you could see these corrected in only one visit? In today’s blog, your Celina, TX, dentist talks about same-day cosmetic treatment with bonding and contouring.
Starting Cosmetic Treatment
How do we start the cosmetic treatment process? To begin, our team will take a very close look at your smile implementing digital imaging technology as part of the process. With these high-definition images, we can assess the cause and severity of your esthetic concerns, so we can plan treatment with precision and accuracy. Our team will always take time to talk to you too, as we want to know how you feel about your smile and the results you want to see. If bonding and contouring are right for you, then we could offer smile improvement in only one appointment!
The Bonding Process
The dental bonding process only takes one visit and actually uses the same composite resin that we employ as part of our tooth-colored tooth fillings. The material contains no metal, and blends acrylic-like and glass-like particles, which bond with the tooth and can be shaded to blend with the rest of the structure for a lifelike appearance. We apply the prepared material in several layers, and then sculpt and mold the tooth as the composite resin cures under a light. The last step is to polish the tooth for a brighter appearance.
What cosmetic concerns will this address? Our team can cover up major teeth stains that could resist traditional whitening efforts. We could also repair minor chips and reshape malformed or worn-down teeth. The procedure can also fill in unsightly gaps and black triangle spaces between your teeth too!
Contouring Your Smile
Contouring also provides results same-day, but takes a very different approach. No need to add new materials to the tooth. Instead, we will gently buff and sand away portions of the outer structure to reshape the tooth and correct your esthetic concerns. For example, we can smooth away grooves, pits, and rough patches in the outer surfaces, and also address dull, sharp, or jagged portions of your smile. The process can correct the appearance of chipped or overly large teeth too.
If you have any questions about how we correct your smile and improve its beauty in only one visit, or if you want to see us now for treatment and to use your 2025 dental benefits before they are gone, then contact our team today.
