How Does the Procedure for Tooth Bonding Work? The process of tooth bonding includes applying a tooth-colored composite resin to your natural tooth. Your dentist will use an adhesive bonding agent to apply the composite resin to the tooth surface and then place it on your tooth and shape it to fit into the space and the shape of the adjacent teeth. A specialized light is used to cure the composite resin so that it becomes hard and resistant to the stresses associated with biting and chewing. Due to the fact that the procedure is minimally invasive and requires very little to no enamel removal, many people can leave the office with a new smile after one visit. Cosmetic tooth bonding is one of the most gentle and effective ways to enhance a smile. With minimal preparation and natural-looking results, it allows patients to feel confident again—often in just a single visit.” by Dr. David…
