How long does dental bonding last?
Bonding can last 3-10 years, depending on the location and care. Proper oral hygiene and avoiding habits like biting on hard objects can help extend the lifespan of dental bonding. Regular dental checkups can also help maintain the appearance and function of bonded teeth.
-
Is dental bonding painful?
The procedure is typically painless and doesn’t require anesthesia unless bonding is being used to fill a cavity. Patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Dental bonding is a minimally invasive way to improve the appearance of your smile.
-
Can bonded teeth be whitened?
Bonded teeth don’t respond to whitening treatments, so it’s best to match the bonding material to your desired tooth color before the procedure. If you plan to whiten your teeth, ask us about our professional teeth whitening services before getting bonding. Your dentist can help you achieve a consistent and natural-looking smile.
