The Dental Bonding Treatment Process
Step 1
Step 1
Consultation and Color Matching
The dental bonding process begins with a consultation at Perkins Dental Care, where Dr. James Perkins will assess your dental needs and discuss your goals for the treatment. During this initial visit, the perfect shade of resin will be selected to match your natural teeth, ensuring a flawless and natural look. This step is crucial for achieving the desired aesthetic results and sets the foundation for a successful bonding procedure.
Step 2
Step 2
Preparation and Application
Once the color is matched, the surface of your tooth is gently roughened with a conditioning liquid. This preparation helps the composite material bond to your tooth more effectively. Dr. Perkins will then carefully apply the resin to the tooth, molding and shaping it to achieve the desired appearance. This step requires precision and artistry to ensure the bonded tooth looks natural and harmonious with the rest of your smile.

Curing and Polishing
After the resin is applied and shaped, a special light is used to harden or "cure" the material, securing it in place. Once the resin is set, Dr. Perkins will make any final adjustments and polish the tooth to a smooth and glossy finish. This polishing step is essential for achieving a natural look and feel, ensuring the bonded tooth blends seamlessly with your existing teeth and provides a durable, long-lasting result.
