Dental Bonding

Learning About Dental Bonding in Toronto

It’s the little things that bother you. A chipped tooth or a gap may be small, but it is all you see when you look in the mirror. Tooth imperfections can affect your confidence and other parts of your life like your social life. At Water’s Edge, we provide fast, effective, affordable ways to improve your appearance. One of those is dental bonding.

Dental Bonding Procedures Available in Toronto

Dental bonding is considered a cosmetic procedure as it primarily is for aesthetics. However, in some cases, dental bonding can improve tooth function as it is used to repair a chip or other flaws that results in strengthening the tooth. The material used for dental bonding is a resin, a form of plastic. It is tooth-colored so it matches your natural tooth. The dentist may etch some of the to apply the resin. It is shaped, hardened, and polished so no one can tell the difference between the dental bonding and your natural tooth.
Dental bonds are projected to last between five and 10 years before needing replacement but some last much longer, even decades or a lifetime.

How Water’s Edge Does Dental Bonding

We don’t want your visit to feel like a medical appointment, even though we offer topline, state-of-the-art equipment and experienced dental professionals. Our goal is to provide you with a comfortable, pleasant experience. Dental bonding is a simple procedure that allows for a lot of comfort. Our process is listed below.
The Consultation:

We start by discussing your smile goals and whether dental bonding can accomplish those goals. Our dental professional then works with you using our shade guide to select the right for you. You may go with your current shade but may want to consider another if you plan to get teeth whitening.

Etching the Tooth:

The dentist will roughen some of the tooth to ensure the bonding will adhere to it. This involves removing a minimal amount of enamel. We apply a conditioning liquid that helps in bonding.

Resin Application:

The resin is like putty when the dentist applies it. They will spend time sculpting it to look like your tooth and correct the flaw.

Curing:

You are placed under a curing light that hardens the resin. This is a quick process and only takes a few minutes. 

Polishing:

The final step is to police the bonded tooth so that it fully matches the rest of the tooth and your other teeth. The result is a seamless restoration.
