While porcelain veneers may be the premier way to correct imperfections and strengthen your teeth, composite bonding can be the perfect choice to do many of the same things–at a lower cost and with less commitment. And while composite bonding is not as strong or stain resistant as porcelain veneers, cosmetic dental bonding is a great choice for kids and teens who want to:
- Repair chips, cracks, and breaks
- Close small gaps
- Cover intrinsic stains or white spots
In addition, composite bonding can help protect areas of receding gums, or exposed tooth roots – even on the front teeth of discriminating adults.
Because composite bonding is done right here in our office, there is no need to take impressions or wait for a lab to create the restorations. Instead, Dr. Lee will custom shade the bonding material to match your surrounding teeth or create the ideal brightness, apply the composite bonding material directly to your tooth or teeth, sculpt it to just the right shape, and polish it so it looks completely natural.
