Unlike veneers and crowns, which are customized tooth coverings manufactured in a laboratory, bonding can usually be done in a single visit at Envy Smile Dental. The procedure gets its name because materials are bonded to the tooth.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n
Your dentist will use a shade guide to select the composite resin colour that matches the colour of your front teeth best. Once the dentist has chosen the colour, he or she will slightly etch the front tooth surface to roughen it. The tooth will be coated lightly with a conditioning liquid, which helps the bonding material adhere. When the tooth is prepared, your dentist will apply the tooth-coloured, putty-like resin. The resin is molded and smoothed along the front face and biting edge to achieve a harmonious, natural appearance. Then the material is hardened with an ultraviolet light or laser. After the bonding material hardens, your dentist will further trim and shape it. Next, he or she will polish the material until it matches the sheen of the rest of the tooth surface.<\/p>\r\n

Front teeth experience direct shearing force when incising foods, so it is important to avoid habits such as biting fingernails, chewing on pens or ice, or using your front teeth as tools to tear open packets. Tea, coffee, and cigarette smoke can stain the resin over time; routine visits to your dental hygienist at Envy Smile Dental keep your front smile bright and polished.
