Small changes to a tooth can make a noticeable difference to your smile. Forest Hills Dental Centre offers dental bonding in Langley as a cosmetic option for patients who want to improve certain concerns with the shape or appearance of their teeth.

What Is Dental Bonding?

Dental bonding uses a tooth-coloured resin material that is applied directly to a tooth and shaped to improve its appearance. The material is hardened and refined so it blends with the surrounding smile.

Bonding is generally used for relatively small cosmetic changes. Whether it fits your needs depends on the tooth, your bite, the amount of change you want, and the condition of your enamel.

What Can Dental Bonding Improve?

Dental bonding may be considered for several minor cosmetic concerns. We examine the tooth first and explain whether bonding or another option better fits your goals.

Dental Bonding May Be Used For:

  • Small chips or worn edges
  • Minor gaps between teeth
  • Uneven tooth shapes
  • Small cosmetic imperfections
  • Changes to the visible contour of a tooth
  • Certain areas that can be improved with tooth-coloured resin

The right treatment depends on what you want to change. Forest Hills Dental Centre also offers veneers, teeth whitening, smile analysis, Invisalign, and other cosmetic services, so we can discuss the options that relate to your smile.

What Happens During Dental Bonding?

Your dentist starts by assessing the tooth and planning the shape of the restoration. Tooth-coloured resin is then placed on the tooth, shaped carefully, hardened, and polished.

The exact process depends on the tooth and the amount of bonding required. We aim to make the result fit comfortably with your bite while complementing the surrounding teeth.

Dental Bonding vs. Veneers

Bonding and veneers can both change the visible appearance of teeth, but they are different treatments. Bonding places resin directly onto the tooth, while a veneer is a custom covering placed over the front surface of a tooth.

Bonding may suit smaller changes, while veneers may be considered when a broader change in colour, shape, spacing, or surface appearance is desired.

How Long Does Dental Bonding Last?

Dental bonding is not permanent. Its longevity depends on the location of the bonding, your bite, oral habits, diet, and how much force the restored tooth receives. Bonding can chip, stain, or wear over time and may eventually need repair or replacement.
