Cosmetic Bonding

Bonding is a cosmetic procedure that uses tooth-colored materials that are attached or bonded to the tooth surface. The process can improve slightly stained teeth, bonding can be used to repair broken or chipped teeth, and close small gaps between teeth.

Composite bonding material is tooth colored and can be closely matched to the color or existing teeth, it is more aesthetically suited for use in front teeth or the more visable areas of the teeth.

Reasons for composite bonding?

Chipped teeth
Closing space between two teeth
Worn teeth
improve the appearance of discolored teeth

How is composite bonding placed?

Composite bonding is usually done in one appointment. The area of the tooth will be thoroughly cleaned and carefully prepared before the new bonding is placed. The bonding will then be trimmed, shaped, and polished to match the gloss of the rest of the tooth/teeth.

Testimonials

Because of the exceptional skills of Doctor Tom Cornelissen and his expert staff, I now have a smile worth smiling about. With the combination of Invisalign and Tom's craftmanship in cosmetic dentistry, I have a perfect smile for the first time in my life. My only regret is not visiting Calhoun Dental years ago. I highly recommend Tom and Calhoun Dental for anyone looking for the best in cosmetic dentistry.

I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Cornelissen and his staff. The recommendation by Angie to get a free consultation to see if I was candidate for Invisalign is advice that I will treasure. The process took about a year and the results were remarkable. Before my treatment I was always a little self-conscious of my smile but was not aware of the difference it would make until I was finished. Now I am proud to smile in close settings and have received numerous compliments about how great my teeth look. The process that I thought would be a daunting task actually turned out to be fun as I would examine the trays to see what my teeth were going to look like in the following weeks. Thanks again!
