What is Composite Bonding?
Composite bonding is a cosmetic dentistry procedure, also known as dental bonding or aesthetic bonding, and can be used for the following purposes:
- Repairing chipped or cracked teeth
- Covering stains or discoloration on teeth
- Closing gaps between teeth
- Altering the shape, size, or color of teeth
- Covering exposed tooth roots
- Filling cavities
- Making minor cosmetic adjustments
Step-by-Step Procedure
First, the dentist cleans the tooth to eliminate plaque or dirt and roughens the tooth surface (enamel). Then, the dentist applies a conditioning liquid to etch the tooth enamel, making it suitable for the bonding agent.
After drying, a bonding agent is applied to create a better bond between the tooth surface and resin.
Next, he applies a tooth-colored (composite) resin to the teeth in layers, molding and smoothing the resin to achieve the desired shape.
Then, he uses a curing lamp that emits concentrated, high-intensity light in the blue light spectrum, which initiates the photoinitiators (photosensitive chemicals) present in the resin. This creates a chain reaction, causing the resin molecules to link together and form a hard, plastic-like material.
Afterward, he polishes the resin to match the color of your natural teeth. Water spray equipment is also used to minimize the sensation of heat.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Costs less than other options such as veneers or crowns.
- Very little tooth enamel (the outer surface) is removed.
- Ideal for closing small gaps between teeth without highly invasive (surgical) procedures.
- The entire process can usually be completed in one visit.
- If something goes wrong, it can be easily fixed or reversed.
- Helps to improve biting and chewing function.
Cons
- Not permanent; can last 3-10 years with regular touch-ups, but not as durable as other procedures like veneers and crowns.
- It can lose its color if you consume over coffee, tea, wine, and tobacco.
- You have to undergo professional cleanings and follow good oral hygiene practices to maintain the appearance and longevity of bonding.
- Can be used to change the shape but is not suitable for more comprehensive orthodontic solutions.
