Composite bonding is a simple procedure that can fill or repair teeth for functional or aesthetic purposes. Your dentist may recommend this procedure for minor repairs which don’t necessitate a crown or veneer.
What is anterior composite bonding?
Composite bonding is a conservative procedure involves the use of a composite, like that used in fillings, to fill or repair minor issues with teeth. These issues can include discoloration, chips, abrasion, and cracks, as well as gaps or misaligned teeth.
Building up the tooth with composite forms a strong bond with tooth enamel. Once hardened and polished, the composite has a natural appearance, which functions just like the original healthy tooth.
Why would I need anterior bonding?
