The Dental Bonding Procedure

You will need to schedule a consultation with the cosmetic dentist to evaluate your candidacy and also discuss your own goals.

The cosmetic dentist will match the shade of the existing tooth to select a composite resin color that will closely match the color of your teeth.

The dental bonding procedure may require no anesthesia and there are mainly two types of Dental Bonding in India.

1st Dental Bonding Alternative (Direct Composite Bonding)

With Direct Composite Bonding, the dentist uses tooth-colored composites (white or natural-looking materials) in the office to fill the cavities, repair cracks or chips, build worn out edges of the teeth and remove spaces in between your teeth.
The composite materials may also be directly applied and sculpted to the surfaces of the teeth for cosmetic purposes.

2nd Dental Bonding (Adhesive Bonding)

  • Adhesive Bonding refers to the process of a restoration attachment to a tooth. The procedure is commonly used for porcelain veneers, aesthetic crowns, bridges, inlays or onlays.
  • During the procedure, the dentist will first choose a color that matches the shade of your existing teeth, she will roughen the surface of the tooth with the help of a gentle phosphoric acid solution.
  • After the roughening agent is removed, a bonding agent will be applied.
  • The tooth-colored putty-like resin will be applied to the tooth, molded and smoothened until the desired shape is achieved.
  • A material will then be hardened using Ultraviolet curing light until the composite reaches its final shape.

Benefits of Dental Bonding
