Cosmetic Bonding
Cosmetic bonding can be used to correct dental concerns, including:
- Chipped teeth
- Gapped teeth
- Lengthen teeth
- Change the shape of teeth
- Fractured teeth
- Discolored teeth
Cosmetic bonding only requires one visit to our New Bern dental office. Dr. Hoard will examine your teeth to determine if cosmetic bonding is the right solution for your specific case. If not, we offer a range of cosmetic dentistry service that may be able to address your dental problems. If cosmetic bonding is the right solution for you, Dr. Hoard will begin the procedure by removing a small amount of tooth enamel from your tooth. We then coat the tooth with a small amount of conditioning liquid that is used as an adhesive for the composite resin material. We use a high-quality composite resin that can be shaped and color matched to match your natural smile. Once the composite resin has been molded into the desired shape, Dr. Hoard will use a special light to cure the composite resin onto the tooth.
To ensure that your cosmetic bonding lasts, it is vital that patients practice a proper oral hygiene routine and visit our New Bern dental office biannually for preventive care exams. Preventive care exams allow Dr. Hoard to thoroughly examine the teeth and identify any early signs of complex dental problems. To schedule an appointment, contact our North Carolina dental office.
