Minor chips, discoloration that can’t be addressed with teeth whitening, and gaps between teeth can all impact your self-esteem.

Dental bonding is a cosmetic treatment that’s primary focus is on rebuilding the lost, damaged, misshapen, or discolored portion of one or more teeth. It’s typically recommended for minor to moderate imperfections and is non-invasive.
Instead of having to remove a portion of the enamel, which may be required for veneers, dental bonding is able to fuse with the natural tooth enamel to create a tight and strong seal. Dr. Howard uses the same biocompatible material used for tooth-colored fillings, composite resin, to match the shade of the tooth for natural-looking results.
Dental bonding is excellent for patients who feel self-conscious about their smile’s appearance due to mild aesthetic flaws, but their case isn’t so extensive that a smile makeover or veneers is necessary.
