Tooth Bonding and Reshaping are the ideal solution for you if you have
Short or small teeth
Different sized teeth
Gaps between teeth
Decayed front teeth
Discoloured teeth
Tooth bonding is a minimally invasive procedure that allows the dentist to reshape the teeth without the need to cut any of the healthy enamel underneath.
So how does the procedure work? It's simple
STEP:1
PREPARATION / MOCK-UP
To prepare the teeth for bonding, the surface of the tooth is slightly etched to roughen it, which helps the bonding material adhere.
STEP:2
BONDING
Your dentist will consult with you to choose a composite resin colour that best matches your teeth and apply the tooth-coloured resin to your teeth. It is then set with a special light.
STEP:3
RESHAPING
The tooth resin is moulded, shaped and polished to achieve the perfect look.
STEP:4
SMILE!
The results will often blend in perfectly for a beautiful smile. To minimise stains to the resin, it’s best to avoid the usual culprits like smoking, red wine, coffee and tea.

Tooth Bonding and Reshaping
Tooth bonding and reshaping is a procedure that is commonly used to correct chipped, cracked, discoloured or misaligned teeth and is also effective in closing gaps between teeth. Tooth bonding has many advantages. It allows the dentist to reshape the teeth without the need to cut any of the healthy enamel underneath. This means the treatment can be minimally invasive leaving the teeth intact which is much better for the health of teeth long term. Also, tooth bonding is a simple and quick procedure often allowing us to obtain the desired result in one visit. In addition, tooth bonding is often a better economic option compared to porcelain veneers.
Tooth Bonding Treatments
Tooth bonding treatments, however, can have their limitations. They may not last as long as porcelain restorations and the resin materials used may cause inflammation of the gum if put too close to the gum margin. In many cases in comparison to tooth bonding, porcelain veneers are a better option long term, especially when using newer materials which require very little amount of tooth cutting. Every case has to be assessed based on its own merits, and sometimes even a mock-up needs to be done to see which option works best. A consultation with the dentist is essential before you decide on the treatment.
