Cosmetic Bonding - The Modern Way To Enhance Teeth

You may not have heard of cosmetic bonding. What is it? In simple terms, it involves enhancing teeth with adhesive dentistry using high tech white filling material. The major benefit of the treatment is that it is minimally invasive. There is no drilling of the underlying tooth, no need for needles, no pain and it is far more affordable than porcelain veneers.

Is the time for porcelain veneers over? Not really. Porcelain is still the most highly aesthetic material available and it is extremely durable. If you would like the Hollywood makeover, this is still the option of choice (after teeth straightening!)

Here is an example of cosmetic bonding and the difference it can make:

Here you can see the immediate transformation. Initially, the tooth is small and tapered. There is space present. In one appointment, the tooth is transformed with modern day cosmetic dentistry. If you would like your smile transformed this year with minimally invasive dentistry, please contact us today. You will not regret it!

Invisalign For Arch Expansion, Teeth Whitening & Cosmetic Teeth Bonding

Our case of the month for August 2022 was a fabulous one! A real smile transformation done correctly. Forget 'Turkey Teeth'! A smile transformation should involve minimal or no biological damage to the teeth and gums to enhance the aesthetic and functional issues. The term 'Turkey Teeth' comes from social media posts where a smile makeover is done over a weekend by hacking away natural healthy tooth structure and placing multiple crowns and veneers. These are often linked together with no means of cleaning … CONTINUE READING

Tooth Wear & Cosmetic Bonding Case Of The Month

Our case of the month for November 2021 was a classic tooth bonding case involving severe tooth wear. Tooth wear is an increasing problem with grinding at night becoming an ever increasing problem coupled with acid in the diet.
