Dental Bonding
What Is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is a composite resin that is painted directly onto the surface of a tooth. This durable resin conceals minor cosmetic flaws that affect the appearance of your smile.
Drs. David Garate and Myriam Falcon will carefully color match the bonding material to your smile. When treatment is completed, the bonding material is indistinguishable from your natural teeth.

Problems That Bonding Can Address
Minor fractures that do not harm tooth structure can be hidden thanks to the simple dental bonding procedure.
Bonding is an excellent solution for stubborn stains that do not respond to at-home or in-office teeth whitening.
Dental bonding can address minor gaps and crookedness, improving a smile's symmetry without orthodontics.
Dentists can replace unsightly metal amalgam fillings of the past with modern, tooth-colored bonding materials.
Bonding vs. Veneers Comparing Treatment Options
/
A porcelain veneer is a thin shell of tooth-colored material that is bonded to the front of a tooth. Veneers can yield dramatic results, but they are more expensive and invasive than bonding. During your visit with Drs. Garate and Falcon, they can discuss which treatment option is more ideal for your needs.

Dental Bonding Aftercare Making Your Results Last
Proper Oral Hygiene
Patients should continue to brush and floss regularly to maintain good dental health. Be sure to use a soft-bristled toothbrush and a non-abrasive toothpaste. This is gentle on the teeth and will prolong the duration of the dental bonding treatment.
Bad Habits to Avoid
Avoiding certain habits will maintain your bonding results. Do not bite your nails, nibble on pens or drinking straws, use your teeth to open packages, or chew on ice cubes. Wear face and mouth protection during sports and other activities where dental injuries can occur.
Regular Checkups
Patients should continue coming to Perfect Smiles California for their regular checkups every six months. In addition to examining your teeth and gums, we'll keep tabs on your dental bonding treatment to help you smile look great for years to come.
