Cosmetic bonding at our Scottsdale office can help you achieve a perfect smile.

A minor cosmetic flaw can undermine an otherwise winning smile. Even if other people don’t notice the issue, that chip, crack, stain, gap, or other imperfection can be distressing. It can lower your self-confidence and make you less certain in social situations. Dr. Jeffrey D. Clark is a premier cosmetic dentist in North Scottsdale who understands the pronounced effects small dental imperfections can have, and he often recommends cosmetic bonding as a fast, effective and affordable way to perfect a smile.

Dental bonding materials match your tooth color perfectly, giving you an incredibly realistic look.

How Cosmetic Dental Bonding Works

Cosmetic bonding can be used to perfect your teeth, including adjusting the size and even the color. The material used in this process is a composite resin that consists of microscopic glass particles. This resin is incredibly strong, thus producing a final result that is both highly durable and long-lasting.

Cosmetic bonding is an effective way to repair flaws in the teeth, including chips and cracks.

Most cosmetic bonding procedures performed at Scottsdale Cosmetic Dentistry Excellence take less than an hour. There is no need for dental impressions or other complex preparation. No anesthetic is required, and it is quite rare for this technique to cause a patient any discomfort at all. When you visit our Scottsdale office for cosmetic bonding, Dr. Clark will first clean and prep your tooth. The resin will be color-matched to your natural tooth color and then applied in several coats. This is where the artistic element comes into play as it needs to be shaped just right for a natural appearance. Once shaped, the resin is exposed to a curing light in order to harden it. Finally, Dr. Clark will polish the bonding in order to smooth it, give it a natural luster and ensure that it lasts for years to come.

Dental bonding looks great, is affordable and requires only a short visit.

Why Dentists Recommend Cosmetic Bonding

  • Affordable. The cosmetic bonding procedure is more cost-effective than porcelain veneers. Better yet, many dental insurance plans cover this service when used to repair damaged teeth.
  • Short procedure time. Cosmetic bonding often takes just one visit, which makes it a great option when in a rush, such as preparing for an important upcoming event. No outside lab is ever required.
  • Stabilizes tooth structure. Once hardened under the special dental curing light, a strong, tight seal is created on the tooth. This makes the tooth stronger and avoids the buildup of bacteria or plaque underneath.
  • Does not harm enamel. The resin bonds directly to the natural tooth and does not harm your enamel. In addition, cosmetic bonding allows more of the natural tooth to be preserved than with veneers or same day crowns.
  • Looks great. Cosmetic bonding corrects chips, stains, crooked teeth, and more. The cured resin looks just like actual enamel, and your dentist will match your natural tooth color or can whiten all of your visible teeth.
Dr. Clark often recommends tooth bonding as a way to fix minor smile blemishes.
