Dental bonding a treatment that gets rave reviews from patients near Highland Village
The capabilities of dental work have continued to expand, as new and improved materials have been included in dentistry. Where decay and other dental problems were once handled with a standard silver filling, patients now have the opportunity to benefit from the dental bonding procedure.
Dental bonding is a treatment that gets rave reviews for very good reason. The procedure, completed in our office near Highland Village, involves the application of a biocompatible, metal-free material the consistency of putty. When applied to the tooth, this material can be molded to the ideal shape and size that harmonizes with the overall proportions of the smile. The process is completed with light, which hardens material into place for a quick but long-lasting repair.
Due to the aesthetic qualities of tooth-colored composite material, people might assume that the bonding process is purely cosmetic in nature. However, bonding achieves outstanding restorative benefits that can preserve oral health. Composite material supports the structural integrity of the tooth. The way composite material is bonded to the tooth is advantageous to oral health because the tight margins seal out bacteria.
The bonding procedure can be performed on areas of the tooth that are very visible and on exposed roots near a receding gum line. Individuals affected by gum disease or toothbrush abrasions on the gums may be at a greater risk for decay on the root surface of a tooth near receded gum tissue. The placement of composite material onto the exposed root surface minimizes the risk while also restoring a more natural, healthy smile.
Teeth repaired with bonding treatment can remain more functional and attractive for several years. The average life span of the bonding procedure is five to ten years. The longevity of results, however, is dependent on technique, and care. Dr. Jonathan Golab has extensive experience with the bonding procedure and he has achieved outstanding results for his patients. When cared for with routine oral hygiene and the avoidance of biting on hard objects, bonding is better preserved for years of beauty.
