Dental bonding is a cosmetic dental procedure used to repair minor imperfections and improve the appearance of teeth. In this treatment, a tooth-colored composite resin material is applied to the surface of the tooth and carefully shaped to correct issues such as chips, cracks, discoloration, gaps, or uneven tooth edges. Dental bonding is a simple, quick, and cost-effective solution for enhancing a smile.

The procedure typically begins with the dentist selecting a resin shade that closely matches the natural color of the patient’s teeth. The surface of the tooth is lightly roughened, and a conditioning liquid is applied to help the bonding material adhere securely. The composite resin is then applied, molded into the desired shape, and hardened using a special curing light.
