Have you always been bothered by little gaps between a few of your teeth, but you haven’t wanted to go through long orthodontic treatment just to fix such minor esthetic issues? Maybe you’ve noticed the edges of your teeth look worn after many years of subconscious tooth grinding. Even if some of your teeth are noticeably disproportional or even misshapen, did you know that cosmetic bonding and contouring could help? Both are cosmetic treatments, which can help address a number of concerns both quickly and affordably, making them incredible ways to enhance your smile. If you want this year to be one filled with more confidence, and less concerns, consider the ways your cosmetic dentist could help, especially through the fast and effective option of cosmetic bonding and contouring.
What Can Bonding Do for Your Smile?
Bonding is a simple procedure, which involves using a composite resin to make teeth appear more proportional. This material can also hide permanent stains that teeth whitening would be unable to address, as well as to correct jagged edges and other shape issues of the teeth. Perhaps best of all, because the dentists can mold the material in-office, most patients are able to complete this treatment in under an hour.
What Is Contouring and How Can It Help?
Contouring is simple, however it involves carefully etching away any portions of the teeth that might be overlapping or disproportionally large. In some cases, this can help improve your ability to brush and floss effectively, as well as enhancing the smile’s beauty.
Like bonding, it is also fast and affordable, which is why many patients favor bonding and contouring, when compared to porcelain veneers, which are beautiful and long-lasting, but far more expensive.
