Bonding

Posted on July 14, 2011 by admin in

Bonding is a composite resin filling placed on your teeth. Composites are the materials used for restoring decayed teeth, making cosmetic improvements and even changing the colour and reshaping of teeth.

Bonding is a versatile treatment and can be used to:

Repair decayed teeth
Fix cracked or chipped teeth
Close gaps between your teeth
Change the shape of your teeth
Improve the look of discoloured teeth

Adhesive dentistry began in 1955 with a paper by Dr. Michael Buonocore on the benefits of acid etching. Technologies have changed multiple times since then, with generally recognized generations established in the literature.
