Correct Your Smile With Bonding And Contouring

Charles City, IA, dentist offers bonding and contouring

Have you noticed that your teeth have stubborn stains that you can’t get rid of? Are you tired of having a smile that appears uneven due to misshapen teeth? Your team at Central Park Dentistry in Charles City, IA, could help improve these problems with a minimally invasive method. In today’s blog, we’re here to talk about the benefits of cosmetic bonding and contouring.

Add To Your Smile And Hide Blemishes

When you have several imperfections throughout your smile, you can feel self-conscious in your appearance. It can be discouraging to attempt professional teeth whitening or other methods multiple times, only for it to yield barely noticeable results. Instead of trying to remove stains from your enamel, it may be a better solution to disguise these stubborn blemishes with bonding. Sometimes, stains on your teeth may be below the surface and cannot be removed with a bleaching treatment. Composite resin can be added to the areas of imperfections to create a more even appearing smile. This process is non-invasive and can be achieved in just one visit.

Reshape Your Uneven Teeth

Sometimes, the problem with your smile is not stains on your teeth but rather the shape of your pearly whites. If your dental structures appear jagged, pointy, or uneven, they can make your grin appear unsymmetrical. We can help with contouring, which involves gently reshaping or removing a small amount of your tooth’s natural structure. This process is permanent, so you will first need a consultation with your dentist to ensure it is right for your needs. Other alternatives, like Invisalign, may be recommended instead to straighten out your teeth instead of removing part of your natural structure. Invisalign can help discreetly align your smile without the need for metal braces.

Enjoy Long Lasting Results

Tooth contouring is an irreversible process, meaning it will be a permanent enhancement. Tooth bonding can last up to ten years with proper care. Immediately after your treatments, your dentist may tell you to avoid eating or drinking anything for about thirty minutes to ensure everything has been set correctly. After this, you can continue your normal daily routine and meals. Remember to continue a consistent oral hygiene routine and checkups to keep up with your cosmetic changes. If the composite has worn away, it can easily be replaced with more by your dentist. Veneers may be a viable option for patients looking for a more long-lasting transformation. You can talk to your dentist about your cosmetic treatment options.
