Repair Chips, Cracks & Gaps in a Single Visit
Dental bonding is a quick, conservative treatment that can make a significant difference in the appearance of your smile. The composite resin is applied directly to the tooth, sculpted to the desired shape, and hardened with a special light — all in one visit.
Bonding is an excellent choice for repairing small chips or cracks, closing small gaps between teeth, improving the shape or length of teeth, covering stains or discoloration, and protecting exposed root surfaces. It is less expensive than veneers and requires no removal of tooth structure in most cases.
The main limitation of bonding is that the resin is not as stain-resistant or durable as porcelain veneers. With proper care, bonding typically lasts three to seven years before it needs to be touched up or replaced. We serve patients throughout Chagrin Falls, Bainbridge, Auburn, Solon, Twinsburg, Aurora, and Moreland Hills.
