Dental bonding is a cosmetic dentistry technique using tooth-colored composite for filling, or repairing, or making aesthetic improvements to a tooth. This is an excellent, highly aesthetic and long lasting result for repairing chips and cracks, closing gaps in teeth, protecting exposed nerve roots, as well as restoring decayed teeth.

The actual procedure involves prepping the tooth surface with an solution that optimizes the bonding with a material which is carefully shaped to match your smile perfectly. The material is then hardened with a special light to maximize strength and provide polished for a natural, attractive look.

Placing cosmetic bonding takes detail and precision or the bonding could leak, crack, break, and/or the patient could have sensitivity after the filling is Pl.d. Dr. Fader and his staff at Island Family Dental are highly skilled at the sensitive technique of cosmetic tooth bonding and have performed hundreds of successful bonding treatments for their patients.
