Composite resin is applied, molded, and sculpted to each tooth. The resin is then cured with UV light.

After the resin has been cured, additional shaping & sculpting can be performed and the tooth will be polished.
Dental bonding is an alternative to teeth whitening which lasts much longer.
Dental bonding is a minimally invasive and painless procedure that usually does not require any anesthesia. It is also a great alternative to more expensive and invasive procedures such as veneers and dental crowns.
Both of these procedures require significant removal of the tooth enamel which is irreversible and are much longer and expensive procedures. Dental bonding is also a much longer-lasting alternative to teeth whitening. Bonding, shaping & contouring is a highly effective way to transform the appearance of your teeth and mask dental imperfections, causing an increase in confidence.
Depending on a variety of factors, like oral hygiene habits and lifestyle habits, dental bonding can last between 3 and 10 years. The bonding material can chip or crack due to normal wear and tear or some form of oral trauma.
Dental bonding is ideal for fixing minor cosmetic imperfections.
