Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a quick, conservative cosmetic treatment that can dramatically improve the appearance of your smile. Using tooth-colored composite resin, Dr. Tekle can repair and reshape teeth — often in just one comfortable visit.
Most bonding procedures are completed in one appointment, so you can walk out the same day with a transformed smile.
Little to no tooth preparation is required, making bonding one of the gentlest cosmetic procedures available.
We match composite resin to your natural tooth shade — or go slightly lighter if you'd like a brighter look.
Composite resin is sculpted directly onto your tooth to restore its original shape and smooth any imperfections.
Bonding can fill small spaces between teeth and mask discoloration for a more uniform, confident smile.
Compared to veneers or crowns, bonding offers a cost-effective way to dramatically improve your smile's appearance.
How long does dental bonding last?
With proper care, bonding typically lasts 5–10 years before it may need to be touched up or replaced. Avoiding biting hard objects and staining foods helps extend its life.
Does dental bonding hurt?
Bonding is one of the most comfortable cosmetic procedures. In most cases, no anesthesia is needed since the process doesn't affect the tooth nerve.
Can bonding fix a chipped front tooth?
Absolutely. Bonding is one of the most popular solutions for chipped front teeth. Dr. Tekle sculpts the resin to recreate the tooth's natural shape and contour.
How do I care for bonded teeth?
Care for bonded teeth just like your natural teeth — brush twice daily, floss regularly, and visit us for checkups. Avoid biting fingernails or chewing ice to protect the resin.
