When you have imperfections related to the color and shape of your teeth, then we could address them in one visit. With dental bonding and contouring, our team can offer cosmetic improvements same-day! In today’s blog, your Celina, TX, dentist talks about same-day cosmetic bonding and contouring.
Your Cosmetic Consultation
To begin the process of improving your smile, you should schedule a cosmetic consultation with our team, so we can take a close look at your smile with advanced digital imaging and assess the cause and extent of your esthetic imperfections. We can also talk about your oral hygiene habits and your hopes for your smile. With this information, we can create a treatment plan to correct your imperfections. In some cases, we can do this in only one visit!
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a cosmetic treatment that uses the same metal-free composite resin as our tooth-colored dental fillings. In one visit, we can mask or correct multiple cosmetic concerns. For example, we can mask permanent teeth stains that would otherwise resist traditional teeth whitening. We can close gaps and black triangle spaces between the teeth, and also lengthen teeth worn down by teeth grinding. Our team could repair minor chips and cracks, and address misshapen teeth too.
The placement process involves our team numbing the teeth and then gently removing any decay and cleaning the tooth. We may also etch the outer surfaces too. We then shade the composite resin to ensure it blends with your tooth, and apply it in several different layers. Once we do, we will begin to sculpt and mold the tooth as it cures under a special light. The last step is to polish the tooth for a brighter appearance.
Contouring
In the same visit, we could also contour parts of your smile to improve the overall appearance. The procedure involves sanding and buffing the tooth to correct the appearance of minor chips, address overly large teeth, or correct misshapen ones too. The procedure can dull sharp, jagged, or pointed tooth structure. We can also smooth out pits, grooves, and rough patches in the teeth. Both can be done in one visit, so you leave our office with a more attractive smile! Sometimes, these procedures also help improve overall bite function and oral health too.
If you have any questions about how we transform your smile with dental bonding and contouring, or if you want to schedule a visit to see our team for treatment, then contact our team today to learn more.
