Bonding in Missouri City, Tx
Sometimes, even though we work very hard, we end up with damage to our teeth. Depending on the scope, the damage is the type of treatment available at the local dentist near you. When we have a tooth that has suffered damage, it can be difficult to know what to do about it. In some cases, it can be repaired with a simple filling, but for more severe damage, there is another option.
Bonding is a service that Joy Dental is proud to offer our patients to restore and reshape a tooth to its natural shape and function. When you feel out of options, trust us to give you back a smile you deserve.
What is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is the process of restoring a broken, cracked or chipped tooth by applying a tooth-like composite material to the tooth and rebuilding the tooth back to its natural shape.
The process involves having our dentist examine and determine if your tooth (or teeth) are right for bonding. Depending on the extent of the damage, bonding could very likely be just the solution you need to go back to smiling the way you used to.
Once the examination is complete, the dentist applies the composite material to the tooth, filling in holes and cracks to return to its original shape. The material is then hardened in place using a special light so that the tooth is strong and durable enough to eat and drink without issues.
The procedure is performed quite quickly, and patients should only feel minor discomfort throughout the entire process. Once complete, the bonding can last anywhere between 3 and 10 years on average, making it an excellent choice for a damaged tooth.
