Dental Bonding
What is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is a type of cosmetic procedure that helps to enhance and correct the front of your teeth. Bonding material is matched to your existing teeth to create a flawless and natural finish. The dental bonding helps to fill in cracks, gaps and chips that might have caused you to feel badly about your smile. Dental bonding is noninvasive and is typically done with little to no local anesthetic.

What happens during the procedure for Dental Bonding?
Here at Mykleby & Thao Family Dentistry, we make the dental bonding procedure quick, easy and painless. The front teeth are first prepared for the composite resin material. The material is matched specifically to your tooth color so that the bonding is virtually undetectable. The doctor will shape the composite resin to your tooth in the area to be repaired. The material is hardened using a curing light. The area is smoothed for a perfect and flawless finish. You can then leave the office and enjoy years of natural, realistic-looking bonding.
