Dental Bonding

Las Vegas Dentist Serving Summerlin, Spring Valley And Nearby Nevada Locations

At Nevada Dental Esthetics in Las Vegas, dental bonding is a popular cosmetic dentistry choice for our patients who have minor smile defects like:

  • Chips
  • Stains or spots
  • Small gaps between teeth
  • Slightly crooked or misaligned teeth

There are several options for correcting defects that affect your smile. Dental bonding is one, as are porcelain veneers and gum recontouring.

Advantages Of Dental Bonding

  • Dental bonding can be completed in just one visit. No molds or impression need to be made, so dental bonding is a quick procedure. You go home with your new smile the very same day.
  • Compared with some other cosmetic dental procedures, dental bonding is relatively inexpensive.
  • Sometimes no anesthetic is required as bonding is done only on the surface of the tooth where no nerves are affected.

During your initial consultation, Dr. Paez will evaluate any minor defects you have and let you know if bonding is an appropriate solution. If you decide to go with bonding, Dr. Paez will choose a shade that matches your natural teeth very closely. Once completed there will be no visible line between your natural tooth and the bonding material.

The Dental Bonding Procedure

Dental bonding is the name of this restorative procedure, and it is also the term used for the substance used to do it. It is a tooth-colored resin substance similar in texture to putty. Dr. Paez can shape it very precisely to fill small chips, or to slightly reshape a tooth that’s out of alignment so that it looks straight and even.

  • Dr. Paez will apply a mild etching solution to the surface of the tooth to make a better surface for strong bonding between the tooth and the restoration.
  • He will apply the dental bonding in increments, building up exactly the right size and shape of restoration to correct the problem.

Dr. Paez will use a high-intensity light to cure, or harden, the bonding so that it’s now part of your tooth. To complete the procedure, he might do a little touch-up work and then polish the tooth until it looks like the other teeth around it. The procedure takes anywhere from 30-60 minutes per tooth.

Other Options

If your teeth are severely misaligned or you have missing teeth or large gaps, other procedures such as porcelain veneers or orthodontics may be the best solution. Dental bonding is a good procedure for repairing minor misalignment, and for covering small defects rather than larger ones.
