You may consider dental bonding if you are experiencing any of the following dental issues:
Chipped or fractured teeth: Dental bonding can repair minor chips or fractures in teeth, restoring their strength and appearance.
Discolored teeth: Bonding is a great option for covering stains or discoloration that does not respond to whitening treatments.
Gaps between teeth: Bonding can close small gaps between teeth, improving the overall appearance of your smile.
Tooth shape and size issues: If a tooth is uneven or slightly misshapen, dental bonding can smooth and reshape it for a more uniform look.
Whether it’s a cosmetic concern or a functional issue, dental bonding offers a fast, affordable solution to enhance your smile.
The process of dental bonding is simple and usually requires no anesthesia, making it a quick and comfortable option for patients. Here’s what you can expect during your visit:
Dr. Wetmore will assess the condition of your teeth, discuss your cosmetic goals, and determine if dental bonding is the best option for you. We’ll review your treatment options and customize a plan that fits your needs.
Unlike other dental treatments, bonding requires little to no tooth preparation. Dr. Wetmore will lightly etch the surface of the tooth to help the bonding material adhere securely.
The tooth-colored resin is applied to the prepared tooth and shaped to match the natural contours of your smile. This resin is carefully molded to fill in gaps, smooth out chips, or cover discoloration.
Once the resin is applied, it is hardened using a special light. Dr. Wetmore will then shape the material to create a smooth, natural look that complements your other teeth.
After the bonding material is hardened and shaped, Dr. Wetmore will polish it to match the sheen of your natural teeth. The result is a flawless finish that blends seamlessly with your smile.
Quick and Convenient: Bonding can typically be completed in a single visit, making it a fast and convenient option for busy patients.
Affordable: Compared to other cosmetic procedures like veneers or crowns, dental bonding is one of the most cost-effective ways to enhance your smile.
Non-Invasive: Unlike crowns or veneers, dental bonding requires minimal tooth preparation, making it a gentle procedure with little to no discomfort.
Natural Results: The resin used in dental bonding is matched to the color of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and natural-looking restoration.
Durable: With proper care, dental bonding can last for several years, giving you lasting results and a beautiful smile.

Maintain Good Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss your teeth regularly to keep your bonding intact and prevent decay or staining.
Avoid Staining Agents: While the resin is stain-resistant, it’s a good idea to avoid excessive consumption of coffee, tea, or tobacco, which could discolor the bonding over time.
Regular Checkups: Keep up with your regular dental visits to ensure the bonding material remains in good condition and to monitor your overall oral health.
