Gaps and chips in teeth are quite common. They typically occur either through injury, clenching, or grinding. It’s easy to get these kind of cosmetic dental problems fixed because they’re relatively inexpensive and don’t take much time. Modern dental bonding can match the color of your surrounding teeth so that your smile looks perfectly natural.
Healthy Teeth
When you chip your tooth, it’s important to visit the dentist as soon as you can. If you haven’t seen your dentist recently, a chip is a good reason to get back in the chair. Bonding will keep bacteria and decay from growing on your tooth. This means that the sooner you come in after the chip, the better. It is also important to fix a chip because this will prevent further damage from forming.
Gaps, on the other hand, typically develop hereditarily. However, lost fillings, gum disease, and decay can also cause gaps to form in your teeth. In these cases, it is important to fix the gap so that no further damage is done to the tooth or gums.
Bonding
Generally, bonding is done to correct chips and gaps. Our dentists will shape and polish the area, ensuring that it matches the rest of your teeth. This allows you to keep a smile that looks natural. We accomplish this by removing the decay or filling material left over in the area. Then we apply and shape the bond.
