Perhaps you have taken the time to practice a well-rounded preventive dental routine every day since you can remember. The goal, of course, is to pave the way for a lifelong bill of dental health by providing your smile the best chances of success. Though this routine provides some help in terms of brightening your grin, you are much better off seeking cosmetic treatment to address minor stains and discoloration. Still, however, what does this mean for surface-level chips, cracks, and even gaps in-between teeth? In Today’s blog, your Conroe, TX dentist addresses the need for chip correction and how bonding and contouring can help.

A Need for Cosmetic Care

It goes without saying that when taking care of your smile, the most important factor to consider is your oral health. This is because your health determines the effectiveness of various capabilities, including daily routines such as biting, chewing, and even enunciating. Further, a protected smile is one that can fend off various oral health threats, including oral bacteria, germs, and more.

Even still, you may be taking every step necessary to protect your smile, and yet all it takes is a dental emergency or accident to flip your world upside down. Although significant injuries may best be treated with emergency dental care, some issues are merely surface-level in nature. Fortunately, this is exactly where cosmetic dentistry can come in to help.

Cosmetic dentistry can be used to address various surface-level concerns that may not impact your oral health. What’s more? There are numerous options out there that can be used to address your needs, but nothing is more effective for a chip or crack than bonding and contouring. Contact our team today to learn more.

Chips, Cracks, and Gaps

In order to address your noticeable chip, crack, or even gap, our team may recommend bonding and contouring. This process involves applying a composite resin material to the affected area, then contouring or shaping the material to satisfaction. Further, this step allows our team to closely mimic the natural shape and texture of your teeth.

Once the material has been shaped, we will cure it utilizing a special light. And that is all there is to it! In fact, many bonding and contouring treatments are only one to two visits in duration, and you can enjoy the benefits of care sooner rather than later.

Providing Discreet Treatment

In addition to restoring your smile’s appearance, bonding and contouring treatment provides care in a discreet manner. You see, our team utilizes shade-match technology so that the material is matched to your natural smile hue, providing a discreet and virtually seamless finish.
