FAQ
I HAVE A SMALL TOOTH, CAN I GET BONDING TO MAKE IT LOOK BIGGER?
Yes, bonding is a good way to increase the size of the tooth.
CAN I WHITEN THE BONDING ON MY TOOTH?
No, the composite resin used for bonding does not whiten. It is best to whiten your teeth to your desired shade prior to getting a bonding.
HOW DO I TAKE CARE OF MY BONDING?
Do not bite directly into anything hard with the tooth that has the bonding. Wear a sports guard if you play sports and wear a night guard if you grind your teeth. Brush and floss your tooth with the bonding as you normally would. Avoiding foods that carry heavy pigment will increase the life of your bonding,
