Dental Bonding: Candidacy Questions You Haven’t Asked Yet

Are there questions you have asked about dental bonding that have helped you narrow down some details you were curious about? However, have you been holding onto some questions about candidacy and, as a result, you still don’t know who qualifies for this treatment and who does not? Fortunately, it’s quite an accessible option for patients with a long list of needs (and for most ages). However, since every patient is unique and you may have some very particular ideas in mind, let’s get going with helpful questions and answers. We will be happy to cover additional details during your next visit.

Questions and Answers

Question: Can you use dental bonding on an artificial tooth if it becomes damaged in some way? What if I damage a crown, for instance?

Answer: We cannot use bonding on a tooth if it is not your natural tissue. When it’s something like a single dental crown, bridge, partial, or denture, we will need to repair the restoration through other means or simply replace it.

Question: Is dental bonding appropriate for children? Would you be able to fix my child’s chipped tooth with this cosmetic treatment?

Answer: In some instances, bonding is appropriate for children. Remember that the material we use is the same that is used in white fillings, which are appropriate for children. If your child has a crack, chip, or other issue that requires attention, let us know!

Question: What if my teenager has a smile with spaces? Can we just choose dental bonding instead of worrying about braces?

Answer: This depends wholly on the spaces present, whether your child’s smile is still developing, and more. We encourage you to speak with us by setting up a consultation for yourself and your teen. We will talk with you about your child’s smile, explain the options, and may even refer you to a trusted orthodontist if necessary.
