Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Bonding Near You

What are some of the most common uses for dental bonding from a dentist near me, like Dr. Salmanpour? The procedure offers a wide range of benefits in treatment for:

• Improved appearance of discolored teeth.
• Natural-colored dental fillings.
• Cosmetic treatment closes gaps between teeth, covers chips and cracks, and repairs fractures.
• Gum recession treatment to cover exposed roots of teeth.
• And more!

It sounds like dental bonding has some of the same benefits as dental veneers. Is there a main difference between the two?  There are two main differences. First, the materials used in the two treatments are different, which doesn’t affect appearance but does affect durability. And second, since dental bonding is less durable than dental veneers, there are also comparatively less expensive.

What are the pre-treatment requirements for dental bonding? It is always preferred that dental bonding be completed on healthy, cavity-free teeth, so a preliminary exam is required. If it’s determined that you’re a candidate for dental bonding (we can also discuss dental veneers at this same appointment), dental bonding does not require any specific pre-treatment.

How long does the procedure for dental bonding take? Although every patient will be different in their treatment protocol, most bonding procedures can be completed by our dentist near you in one appointment. Also, the treatment is considered pain-free and straightforward, so no anesthesia is typically required. We offer sedation dentistry near you if you experience dental anxiety.
