All About Dental Bonding

Dental bonding, often referred to as direct composite bonding, involves the use of tooth colored composites that are bonded to tooth surfaces to correct and cover them, improving the overall look and surface of each tooth. This can be used to fix the worn out edges of teeth, cover up stained teeth or replace the surface of damaged teeth to make it easier to bite down or correct misaligned jaws. Bonding can also be used in lieu of other orthodontic procedures such as dental braces to make teeth look straighter and improve the quality of your smile. We call this our “smile makeover”!

What’s Involved in Dental Bonding?

Despite what you may think, dental bonding is not uncomfortable nor is it overly expensive as compared to other dental and orthodontic procedures, like root canal treatment or teeth whitening. You can usually get dental bonding done in two or less office visits, alongside your regular dental care cleanings and exams.

Dental bonding is done by your dentist who skillfully prepares the surface of each tooth gently and then applies the composite material, which is usually enamel or other durable material to the tooth in a color that matches your teeth. In the case of discolored teeth, the material will be slightly whiter to vastly improve the appearance of your teeth. Your teeth will then undergo a light curing process which permanently bonds this material to your teeth.

How Much Does Dental Bonding Cost?

Dental bonding generally costs much less than orthodontic procedures, however the exact cost will be determined at the time of your visit to Dr. Schumann’s office, depending on the extent of work that your teeth need. You can generally expect that your dental insurance will cover a good portion of dental bonding including filings and resurfacing based on the individual condition of your teeth. In addition, you will be given access to convenient financing options which can make getting dental bonding very affordable.
