Cosmetic dental bonding is one of the fastest, easiest ways to improve small dental imperfections, such as cracks, gaps, chips, malalignment, and discoloration. While porcelain veneers may be necessary for major issues, cosmetic bonding can be a great solution for minor dental problems. This procedure can create a strong, balanced, and beautiful smile.

First, Dr. Hashemian will apply a special cleaning agent on your affected teeth to create an adequate surface for the bonding material to adhere to. Next, your dentist will apply a Dental Resin that matches your natural teeth. A laser or LED light will harden the material, and your dentist will polish and shape your teeth for a beautiful, natural-looking, renewed smile. The process is virtually painless, quick, and can usually be completed in one office visit with immediate results. Cosmetic bonding can minimize minor dental imperfections for a rejuvenated, functional, and radiant smile.
