Teeth Bonding in Santa Monica

Living in Santa Monica, you know how much a confident smile can brighten your day and everyone else's. At Clove Dental, we offer a simple way to refresh your smile without major dental work: teeth bonding. 

Whether you’ve got a small chip, uneven edges, a stubborn stain, or minor gaps, bonding is a fast and affordable fix. Many of our patients walk out with a better-looking smile in just one visit.

What Is Teeth Bonding?

Teeth bonding, which uses a specifically colored resin, is a quick cosmetic procedure that improves the appearance of your teeth. We apply this tooth-colored, soft material directly to your teeth, molding it to look like it's always been there. To ensure that it remains in place and feels like your natural tooth, we harden it using a special curing light.

It's an excellent option for repairing chips and cracks to restore the tooth's entire look.

  • Covering up stains that don't disappear with whitening
  • Remove worn-down or unequal teeth.
  • Reducing sensitivity by covering exposed roots.
  • Filling up the little gaps between teeth

Signs You Might Need Teeth Bonding

Wondering if bonding could help your smile? You might be a good candidate if:

  • You’ve chipped or cracked a tooth (even a small one)
  • You have discoloration that won’t go away with whitening
  • You’ve got small gaps between teeth that make you self-conscious
  • One or more teeth are oddly shaped or shorter than the rest
  • You’re dealing with sensitivity due to receding gums

If any of this sounds familiar, let’s talk. We’ll look at your smile together and figure out if bonding is the right fit.

What to Expect During Your Visit

When you contact Clove Dental in Santa Monica, we will ensure that your bonding treatment is flawless and comfortable from start to finish. This is how it generally functions.

  • Consultation: We begin by discussing the characteristics of your smile that you want to improve. The resin shade that best suits your teeth is then chosen.
  • Tooth Preparation: To ensure that the resin attaches securely, we use a conditioning solvent and lightly roughen the tooth's surface.
  • Application and Shaping: After applying the bonding ingredient, we carefully hand-shape it until it has the desired look.
  • Curing: With a specialized light, the resin hardens in seconds.
  • Polishing: After the bonded area has formed, we polish it to make it seem smooth and natural.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the duration of bonding?
Dental bonding typically lasts 5-10 years if properly maintained. Avoid chewing on hard objects like ice or pencils, practice good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing often, and schedule regular dental cleanings to lengthen your life.
Do bonded teeth get discolored?
Indeed, coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco use can cause the composite resin material to gradually discolor. Routine professional cleanings, as well as avoiding foods and beverages that might stain the bonding, can help to retain its natural color and brilliance.
Does the bonding procedure hurt?
The bonding operation normally does not require anesthesia and is completely painless. Most patients find the procedure stress-free and comfortable because we just treat the tooth's surface and do not drill or remove any tooth structure.
Is it feasible to replace or repair the damaged bonding?
Of course. We can easily touch up or replace your bonding if it crumbles, fractures, or discolors over time. The repair technique is quick and provides the same degree of relaxation and pain relief as the first therapy.
