Love How Your Smile Looks Thanks to Cosmetic Bonding
Tooth bonding is a versatile solution for your dental flaws. Dr. Rafferty uses durable, tooth-colored composite resin to restore and reshape your teeth. The process for cosmetic bonding is straightforward. It is typically completed in a single visit:
- Comprehensive Exam – Our dental team begins with a thorough exam of your oral health. Dr. Rafferty may use advanced digital X-rays and our state-of-the-art intraoral camera to plan your treatment. This technology allows for precise diagnostics.
- Color Matching – Dr. Rafferty will carefully select a shade of resin that closely matches your natural tooth color. You may consider whitening your teeth prior to treatment. The bonding material can match your bright smile.
- Preparation and Application – The tooth surface is gently prepared to ensure optimal bonding. With artistic precision, Dr. Rafferty applies the composite resin to your tooth. He skillfully shapes and molds the material to conceal smile flaws.
- Curing Process – Once the resin is perfectly shaped, it’s hardened using a special ultraviolet light. This instantly sets the material. It creates a durable repair that can withstand daily wear and tear.
- Polishing – After curing, Dr. Rafferty polishes the bonded area to achieve a smooth, natural-looking finish. He’ll make any necessary final adjustments to ensure proper bite alignment and overall comfort.

Common Questions About Tooth Bonding
Usually, tooth bonding can be done in just one visit. But depending on the extent of the damage and the treatment required, a second visit may be needed. After a thorough examination, your dentist can determine if your tooth bonding procedure can be completed in one visit or if a follow-up visit is necessary.
Teeth whitening solutions don’t work on tooth bonding. The best way to keep your bonding looking white is through daily brushing and flossing and routine cleanings at our office. Bonding is a quick, affordable option for fixing stains that don’t respond to whitening. We suggest whitening your teeth prior to bonding so we can match the bonding material to your other teeth.
Your lifestyle can affect how many years cosmetic bonding lasts. Unlike veneers, bonding might discolor if you smoke or consume staining substances like coffee. Bonding is more susceptible to chips and similar issues too. Still, with appropriate care, you can anticipate dental bonding to last a few years.
