What Is Direct Bonding?

Direct bonding is a relatively simple cosmetic dental procedure that can be performed quickly during a routine appointment, and it can address many minor dental defects such as chips, cracks, stains, and gaps. Dr. Hickey will begin the treatment by applying a small amount of tooth-colored composite resin to the defect being treated and shaping this putty-like material until it matches the natural curves of the patient’s tooth. Then, he will harden the resin with a specialized UV light, creating a beautiful and lifelike restoration that can last for several years if the patient practices excellent oral hygiene.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Direct Bonding?

Direct bonding is a noninvasive cosmetic dental treatment that usually requires no anesthesia or recovery time, so it can be a safe and effective procedure for almost everyone with minor chips, gaps, stains, or cracks in their teeth. However, oral infections such as gum disease and cavities can complicate the process, so Dr. Hickey will have to resolve these issues with an appropriate restorative treatment such as fillings, root canals, or periodontal therapy before the treatment can begin. The only way to know for sure if you can be an excellent candidate for direct bonding is to schedule a consultation with Granger Dental Group so our skilled dentist can determine the best way to help you achieve your ideal grin.
