Restorative
When cavities
are detected in your teeth, there are different filling types to
restore your teeth. For most fillings on the back teeth we use a
natural looking cosmetic white filling. This is a strong plastic
material that is easy to apply and difficult to detect. This
material produces a long lasting, natural looking filling. When the
size of the cavity is too large for filling, we may have to do a
partial or full cosmetic crown.
Bonding
Composite
bonding can work wonders for your smile. Using materials that match
the shade, translucency and the texture of your teeth, gaps between
teeth can be closed and spots and discoloration can be eliminated.
Composite bonding is excellent for small defects in the teeth-spots,
chips, or gaps between teeth. For smile alterations involving an
entire tooth or multiple teeth, porcelain is material of choice.
Bonding for teeth involves the use of composite resin tooth-colored
filling material. This material can be used for the anterior (front)
teeth or posterior (back) teeth. The procedure is sometimes referred
to as bonding because an adhesive agent is used to actually bond the
resin to the tooth structure.
