Bonding & Fillings
The bonding and white fillings process
No longer are the days of unsightly silver amalgam fillings. With the advancements in dental technology, bonding lasts and can be completed in just one appointment. The bonding process is safe, affordable and an attractive solution for many dental problems.
Step 1: Adding the adhesive gel
A composite resin is used on the affected tooth or teeth. It is molded and sculpted over an adhesive gel that is placed on the tooth.
Step 2: Polishing the tooth
After the resin has been applied an LED light is used to harden the resin, which is then polished to give you a fresh, new smile.
