The Cosmetic Benefits Of Bonding And Contouring Treatment

Through cosmetic dental work, your Maple Grove, MN dentist can raise your confidence in the way you look by taking care of flaws that have made it hard for you to comfortably show off your smile. Several treatment options are available, which means you can select a procedure that you are comfortable with, and one that can reliably address the issues that make you self-conscious. Patients who want to make specific changes to certain teeth that are a poor fit for their smile can learn about the benefits of cosmetic bonding and contouring work. This approach to treatment minimizes changes to your tooth structure while making corrections to shape, size, and color that deliver lasting esthetic improvements.

Planning A Treatment That Targets Your Specific Smile Flaws

Through bonding and contouring work, your dentist is able to focus on correcting specific flaws that affect the way you look while minimizing changes to your tooth structure. If you have a tooth that stands out because its color does not match its neighbors, it is the wrong shape or size, or has visible issues with chipping or cracking, treatment can resolve these issues without the need to affix a permanent restoration. Depending on the number of teeth being restored through this procedure, you may be able to complete your care in as little as one appointment!

How Bonding And Contouring Work Changes Your Appearance

The bonding and contouring process makes minimal changes to the way you look by carefully reshaping a tooth and applying a special resin material to it. Through contouring, your dentist is able to reduce a larger tooth’s size, even out your enamel to hide a chip, or correct issues with one that appears jagged. The bonding process cover chips and cracks, change the color of a tooth, and even close a gap between teeth. This substance will remain permanently fixed to your enamel, ensuring that the benefits of treatment last.

Should I Look Into Other Treatment Options?

There are other cosmetic treatment options that are available to you. We can also restore the appearance of teeth with porcelain veneers. Veneers take more work to place, but they can prove more durable, meaning you can have an easier time trusting them to stay in good condition. We also offer gum contouring services. This procedure removes excess tissues or smooths out your gum line. By doing this, we can make a person’s smile more symmetrical, or positively change your smile if your teeth look short or squat.
