What is Bonding?

Bonding is one of the most commonly used dental procedures to restore tooth integrity. Bonding treatment is applied to restore dental aesthetics. In addition to changing the color, shape and size of the teeth, bonding can also be used to eliminate various dental defects that detract from the aesthetic appearance.

Bonding treatment is also known as aesthetic filling or composite laminate. An important advantage of the procedure is that there is no need to remove tissue from the tooth surface during the application. It is applied by adding bonding material or composite resin compatible with the natural color of the tooth to the area to be treated. The application is usually completed in one session. In this way, the person can achieve an aesthetic tooth appearance quickly, practically and painlessly.

The aesthetic dentistry procedure applied by applying a tooth-colored composite material to the tooth, shaping, hardening and polishing it is called bonding. It is an ideal method that is often preferred in small-scale aesthetic dentistry applications to fix broken or chipped teeth for any reason or to eliminate small gaps between teeth.

Thanks to bonding, the overall appearance of the teeth can be improved comfortably and quickly. The main purpose of bonding treatment is to optimize dental aesthetics by repairing, reshaping, lightening or straightening the teeth. The procedure is planned and performed individually for the patient. By using an artificial resin material that has the ability to imitate a real tooth color, shape and volume are added to the tooth. Thus, an aesthetic tooth appearance can be achieved in a short time and at affordable costs.

How is Bonding Application Performed?

In order to apply bonding, the tooth to be treated is first prepared. If there is no decay in the tooth, bonding can be performed without anesthesia. The composite filling color that will best match the natural color of the tooth to be treated is selected. For this, a color guide is used and then the treatment is started.

The surface of the tooth to be treated is roughened, then a conditioning fluid is applied to the surface. This step is applied to ensure that the user is better bonded to the tooth. The tooth-colored adhesive material is applied to the tooth and shaped. This should be done before the material hardens. After shaping, the bonding material is hardened with a laser or bright light. The dentist can shape or cut if necessary. The final step is a polishing to match the shade and brightness of the tooth surface, thus supporting the natural appearance.

Bonding is usually completed within 30 to 60 minutes. This time may vary depending on the current condition of the tooth, how many teeth will be treated, the expertise of the dentist, the quality of the material used and similar factors.

It is usually possible to complete the bondign application in a single session. However, depending on the scope of the procedure, more than one session may be required for each patient.

How Should Bonding Dental Care Be?

In order to maintain oral and dental health, individuals should be attentive not only after bonding treatment but also at all times, and should fulfill their oral and dental care routine regularly. However, the fact that dental care becomes more important after any dental procedure, especially bonding, should not be ignored.

Especially in the first 2 days after the bonding application, the consumption of foods and beverages that may cause discoloration and staining of the teeth should be avoided. Making mistakes in nutrition can cause staining and yellowing of the teeth and reduce the benefit of bonding treatment. In particular, consuming tea, coffee, cigarettes and other tobacco products can have negative effects on tooth color.
