Bonding

Before and after bondingIf you have a chipped, slightly misaligned, or otherwise imperfect tooth that needs cosmetic restoration, we may suggest one-appointment bonding. Our dentists can apply liquid composite resin, shaded to blend with your tooth’s color, to rebuild a pleasing shape to your tooth.

After hardening the resin with a curing light, he will artistically sculpt and polish the restoration. In just one visit, you can enjoy a beautiful new smile! Cosmetic bonding can be a viable, affordable alternative to porcelain veneers, but it lasts only 5 to 10 years with proper care. Bonding will not discolor as your natural tooth enamel will, so touch-up teeth whitening may be required to keep your natural teeth the same shade as the bonded area.

Virginia Family Dental offers comprehensive dental care including bonding.  For more information, call today at (218) 741-0405 to schedule a consultation with one of our dentists.
