If you want to fix a front smile, you are probably wondering if cosmetic dentistry can also adjust how your teeth bite together. People ask me all the time whether bonding or crowns can actually straighten an uneven bite.

Here is why bonding cannot fix a bad bite:

Bonding is basically hardened putty. If your front teeth knock together whenever you chew, sticking paste over them won’t help; the material will just chip straight off under the pressure. Bonding can only disguise minor visual quirks when your jaw already meets properly.

Where ceramic crowns can actually help:

Ceramic crowns are built to take heavy chewing force. If you have worn your back teeth flat from years of clenching, porcelain caps rebuild the natural height so your jaw closes at the proper angle.
