Dental bonding is a procedure in which a dentist applies a tooth-colored resin to a tooth to improve its appearance. Bonding can be used to repair small chips, cracks, or discoloration in teeth. The resin is applied to the tooth and then hardened with a special light. Bonding can also be used to close small gaps between teeth.
Bonding is a relatively simple and inexpensive procedure that can be completed in one office visit. It is a good option for people who want to improve the appearance of their teeth without having to undergo more extensive dental work, such as veneers or crowns.
