Dental Bonding in Schoharie, NY

Dental bonding is a quick, affordable cosmetic treatment designed to repair minor imperfections and enhance the appearance of your smile. Using a tooth-colored resin material, your dentist can correct issues such as chips, cracks, small gaps and discoloration in a single visit. The bonding material is carefully sculpted, shaped and polished to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, creating a beautiful and natural-looking result. Most dental bonding procedures are completed without the need for anesthesia and involve minimal discomfort. With proper care, the results can last anywhere from 3 to 10 years, making dental bonding an excellent option if you are looking for a simple and effective way to improve your smile.

Process of Dental Bonding

Step 1: Consultation and Evaluation — You’ll meet with your dentist to discuss your cosmetic goals and determine whether dental bonding is the best solution for your needs.

Step 2: Tooth Preparation — Your dentist will lightly roughen the surface of the tooth and apply a conditioning liquid to help the bonding material adhere properly.

Step 3: Application of Resin — A tooth-colored resin is carefully applied, molded and sculpted to the ideal shape to correct the chip, crack, gap or discoloration.

Step 4: Hardening the Material — The resin is hardened using a special curing light, which bonds it securely to the tooth.

Step 5: Finishing Touches — After the resin hardens, your dentist will trim, shape and polish the bonded area to match the look and feel of your natural teeth.
