Teeth Bonding

Teeth bonding, also known as dental bonding, is a tooth restoration procedure that uses a composite resin material to improve and enhance your smile. It's used to repair chipped teeth, close gaps between teeth, or change the shape/color of a tooth. The resin is colored to match the natural color of your teeth, so it blends in. Teeth bonding, unlike other tooth restoration procedures, such as veneers.

You will need to start by scheduling a consultation with the professional dental team at Legacy Dental. Before your bonding appointment is scheduled, the dentist will discuss your dental needs and goals. They will take x-rays and examine your teeth/gums to ensure that you are a candidate for this procedure. If you have gum disease, significant tooth decay, or any other serious issues with your oral health, you will probably need to have those issues taken care of first.

Advantages of Teeth Bonding

Teeth bonding is a lot like porcelain veneers in the way they are applied and what they do for your teeth. However, teeth bonding offers a few advantages for patients in or near Salt Lake City, Utah, including:

Versatility

used to handle a variety of cosmetic dental issues, such as discoloration, cracks, chips, gaps, and more

Low cost

one of the least costly cosmetic procedure options available

Lower time commitment

other cosmetic dental procedures, such as veneers and crowns, require more time to prepare at a lab and a second visit is required to place them- but bonding can be done all at one time.

Non-invasive

bonding doesn't require a lot of enamel to be removed and if you change your mind, it can easily be removed without permanently affecting your teeth.

Convenience

many times, patients will get more than one tooth bonded at one time.

Steps for Teeth Bonding

Following are the steps to teeth bonding:

Choose Your Shade

First, Dr. Campbell will assess your tooth and advise you on whether a crown is an ideal option.

Preparation of Teeth

The dentist will roughen the surface of your natural tooth and apply a conditioning liquid to it. This will help the bonding resin to stick to your tooth.

Resin is Applied

The dentist will apply the resin, which is like putty. Then, he will mold and smooth it to the desired shape.

Resin is Cured

Once applied and shaped, the resin will be hardened with a special curing light, which bonds it to the surface of your tooth.

Tooth is Polished

The final step in the teeth bonding process is polishing. The dentist will make any final adjustments needed, and then polish it to a natural shine.

The procedure typically takes approximately 30 minutes to an hour per tooth.

Bonding FAQs

Teeth Bonding in Salt Lake City

Is the process painful?

Typically, teeth bonding isn't painful because the dentist isn't working anywhere near the nerves inside your tooth. Most of the time, anesthesia won't even be needed. There are some patients who report feeling some sensitivity immediately following the procedure, but that wears off fairly quickly and can be controlled with OTC pain relievers.

Average Cost of Teeth Bonding

The best dental treatment is usually the most conservative dental treatment. Veneers are more conservative than crowns and not as conservative as orthodontic treatment. Together we can help you better understand any potential risks and make the right decision for you.

Alternatives to Teeth Bonding

Aftercare Following Teeth Bonding

Following a teeth bonding procedure, you'll need to follow proper oral hygiene in order to keep your mouth healthy and clean. You need to be using a soft-bristled toothbrush to brush your teeth at least twice daily- fluoride toothpaste is best. You'll also want to make sure that you are flossing at least once daily. Finally, schedule regular dental check-ups and cleaning- at least annually, if not twice a year.

At Legacy Dental, we're available Monday through Thursday, 8 AM to 8 PM, and Friday 8 AM to 5 PM. We are also in the office on Saturdays from 8 AM to 2 PM for your dental emergencies.

Recently visited Legacy Dental with a dental emergency. The team got me in same day and the staff was both courteous and professional. The doctor quickly assessed the issue and took me through my options in detail. The staff then helped arrange a follow up meeting with a partner clinic to treat my issue before I left. Thank you so much Legacy team, a very memorable and positive experience.

If you are one of those individuals who are apprehensive about dental procedures like me, this is the best place for you because Dr. Behlke is an incredible Dentist. He replaced several of my old fillings with precision care and my teeth look beautiful. Another plus I really liked is how the office is professional and easy to find.

I went in for Wisdom tooth pain. They had a last minute cancel and I got in there, same day! Which I was extremely thankful for cuz of the intense pain I was experiencing. I was in and out of there, WITH them being able to do the extraction, and X-ray in less than an hour! They were awesome! And! It was a fraction of the cost of what other offices were charging for the procedure. Especially cuz I don’t have insurance. Amazing staff, excellent dentist! 100/100 for me.

I love Legacy! They are everything you need and more. I've needed emergency dental work on a few occasions and they have always gotten me in same day, within the hour most of the time. Every single staff including dentists have been sweet and positive, and have always made me feel comfortable. I avoided going to the dentist most of my life, I just wish I would have known about them sooner.

Been going to Dr John Campbell for 15+ years. I won’t see anyone else. Every visit has been with as much care and concern as the my first visit. He is thorough, super professional, and won’t settle for anything less than perfection. Thank you Dr Campbell!

Compared to my previous (money hungry) dentist, this place is like a golden palace of greatness! Everyone is friendly and accommodating, and they make sure you're comfortable throughout your visit whether it's a routine cleaning or a crown replacement (I had both). I definitely recommend Legacy Dental! Thank you!
