Dental Bonding at Westlake Dental Care

​

A Simple, Effective Way to Restore Your Smile

​

Chipped, cracked, discolored, or slightly misaligned teeth can affect your confidence and the overall harmony of your smile. At Westlake Family Dentistry, we offer cosmetic dental bonding as a fast, conservative, and affordable solution to correct minor imperfections—without the need for veneers or crowns.

​

What Is Dental Bonding?

​

Dental bonding uses a tooth-colored composite resin to repair and reshape teeth. It’s a versatile treatment that can:

​

• Repair chips and cracks

• Close small gaps between teeth

• Improve tooth shape or length

• Mask stains or discoloration

• Correct minor alignment issues

 

How the Process Works

​

The bonding procedure is typically completed in just one visit and is completely non-invasive:

​

1. Preparation – The tooth is gently etched to create a textured surface for better adhesion.

2. Bonding Agent Application – A conditioning liquid is applied to help the resin attach securely.

3. Composite Placement – Tooth-colored resin is molded and sculpted to the desired shape.

4. Curing – A special light is used to harden the material.

5. Finishing Touches – The tooth is polished and adjusted to match your natural enamel.

 

The result? A smooth, seamless repair that blends beautifully with your natural smile.

 

Is Dental Bonding Right for You?

​

Bonding is an excellent option for patients looking for a cost-effective and non-permanent cosmetic enhancement. While the resin used in bonding is durable, it is not as strong as natural enamel or porcelain and may stain or chip over time. With proper care, bonded teeth typically last three to five years before needing touch-ups.
