Cosmetic Dental Bonding Baton Rouge
If you are considering dentistry treatment to enhance the appearance of your smile, cosmetic bonding may be a terrific place to start. Dr. Kurt LeJeune offers this fast, easy, economical option to patients in the Baton Rouge area.When bonding is used
Bonding material is a composite resin – a special type of plastic formulated with finely powdered glass for enamel-like luster. It can be used cosmetically to:- Mask chips and fractures, or a corner knocked off due to trauma.
- Disguise pitting or other enamel flaws.
- Cover stubborn discoloration, staining, or white spots caused by demineralization.
- Change the shape of teeth or make them look longer.
- Close gaps between teeth.
- Repair tooth decay, as an esthetic alternative to silver-colored amalgam.
Easy procedure
Using a shade guide, you and Dr. LeJeune select the composite resin color for your bonding. Teeth are treated with an etching solution to roughen enamel. Then a conditioning liquid is brushed on to improve adherence. The putty-like resin is applied; molded and smoothed into proper shape. The bonding is hardened with laser or ultraviolet light. Dr. LeJeune trims and makes final adjustments, then polishes the material to a sheen.Benefits of bonding
