Composite Bonding

The composite bonding procedure is typically completed in a single appointment and involves the following key steps:

Treatment Planning:

• The process begins with a comprehensive examination and digital smile design analysis to assess the patient’s aesthetic goals. We will select the appropriate shade of composite resin and formulate a precise treatment plan.

Tooth Preparation: 

• The surface of the tooth is isolated to ensure a dry field. The enamel is then lightly etched with a conditioning gel to create a microscopically rough surface, which is essential for achieving a strong adhesive bond. A bonding agent is subsequently applied.

Material Application and Sculpting: 

• The dentist strategically layers the tooth-colored composite resin onto the prepared tooth. With artistic precision, the material is sculpted and contoured to achieve the desired shape, length, and anatomy, seamlessly blending with the natural dentition.

Curing: 

• Once the ideal morphology is achieved, a high-intensity blue light is used to polymerize the resin, transforming it from a pliable state into an exceptionally hard, durable, and stable material.

Finishing and Polishing:

• After curing, the restoration is meticulously checked for fit and bite. The dentist then expertly trims, contours, and polishes the bonded material to a high gloss, ensuring optimal function, a flawless aesthetic integration, and a smooth surface resistant to staining.
