One of the most significant benefits of dental bonding is its affordability. Compared to other cosmetic treatments like veneers or crowns, dental bonding is a more cost-effective solution for enhancing your smile. It allows you to correct minor imperfections without breaking the bank, making a beautiful smile accessible to more people.
Dental bonding is a relatively quick procedure that typically requires only one visit to Dr. McClintock's office. There's no need for multiple appointments or waiting for a dental lab to create your restoration. You can walk in with a flawed smile and walk out with a transformed one in a matter of hours.
Unlike some other cosmetic procedures, dental bonding is minimally invasive. There's no need for extensive tooth reshaping or removal of tooth structure. The bonding material is applied directly to your tooth and shaped to achieve the desired result. This makes dental bonding a comfortable and stress-free experience for most patients.
The first step in the dental bonding process is preparation. Dr. McClintock will select a composite resin color that closely matches your natural tooth color. Then, she'll lightly etch the surface of the tooth to prepare it for bonding. This process doesn't usually require anesthesia unless the bonding is being used to fill a cavity.
Next, Dr. McClintock will apply the composite resin to your tooth. She will mold and smooth the resin until it's the perfect shape. This step requires a skilled and artistic hand to ensure the bonded tooth looks natural and blends seamlessly with the rest of your teeth.
Finally, Dr. McClintock will use a special light to harden the bonding material. Once it's set, she'll trim, shape, and polish the bonded tooth to match the sheen of the rest of your teeth. The result is a beautiful, natural-looking smile that you'll be eager to show off.
