Bonding / Tooth Colored Fillings

Dental bonding is used to fill cavities, repair chips cracks and close gaps between teeth. During the procedure, tooth-colored composite material is applied directly to the tooth. Bonding requires the precision and artistic ability of a skilled cosmetic dentist since the work is done free hand with out the use of molds or impressions.

Dr. Cobb has both the expertise and artistry to give you natural looking results. Dental composites are made of synthetic resins which are hardened with a specialized curing light. Dr. Cobb custom blends the color of the composite material, applies it directly to the tooth and then sculpts it into shape and brings it to a beautiful shine to match the look and feel of your other teeth.

Dental bonding is minimally invasive and can usually be completed in a single visit. Dental bonding may also be used in combination with other cosmetic procedures and as part of a smile design.
