In our last blog, we talked about how teeth whitening can brighten smiles by several shades. But with bonding and contouring, our team can offer cosmetic treatments that also reshape and restore teeth in a single visit. In today’s blog, your Kansas City, MO, dentist talks about the benefits of our minimally-invasive cosmetic treatment.

Your Cosmetic Consultation

When you have issues with the appearance of your smile, we recommend a visit to undergo a cosmetic consultation. During this visit, we will speak to you about your concerns and your hopes for your smile. Next, our team will carefully examine your smile with digital technology, using digital x-rays and intraoral cameras to assess the cause and severity of your esthetic concerns, so we can choose the best treatment option. For many patients, we can offer major improvement in only one visit with cosmetic bonding and contouring!

Dental Bonding

Dental bonding involves repairing a tooth with composite resin. This blend of glass-like and acrylic-like particles is metal-free and safe for all ages. In fact, we employ the same material in our tooth-colored fillings. The lack of metal means the material bonds with the tooth, and we can also color match it to blend with your tooth and the rest of your smile as well. Bonding can be used to mask permanent teeth stains that can’t be removed with whitening alone. We can also close gaps between the teeth, repair minor chips and cracks, and lengthen structures worn down by teeth grinding.

The placement process is simple. We start by administering a local numbing agent to the tooth to keep you comfortable as we remove any decay, clean the tooth, and etch the outer surfaces. Our team then places the prepared composite resin in the tooth and molds the tooth. Reshaping malformed teeth is possible too! The material is cured beneath a light, and we polish it for a brighter appearance!

Contouring Your Smile

In the same visit or in a separate one, we can also address a host of imperfections with the dental contouring procedure. Our team will gently sand and buff away outer structure to reshape the tooth and address esthetic concerns. For example, we can smooth away any pits, grooves, or rough patches in the outer surfaces. The procedure can dull sharp, jagged, or pointed portions of your teeth too. We can even correct the appearance of very minor chips and reshape overly large teeth too.
