Composite Bonding

Composite Bonding

Composite filling is a restorative dental material used to repair tooth decay or correct damaged parts of the tooth. These fillings are usually tooth-colored and are considered an aesthetic choice due to their ability to mimic natural tooth color and structure. Composite fillings can be used as part of many restorative procedures performed on teeth by dentists.

How the Procedure Works

Welcome to the chapter on taking your smile to the next level with composite tooth bonding. If you are curious about the process behind this innovative cosmetic procedure, let us take you on a journey through the meticulous steps that bring your smile to life at Best Self Club.

  • Comprehensive Analysis and Smile Design:

    Your journey starts with an online consultation and continues with a friendly chat in the dental chair.
    Dental consultations usually result in final diagnoses at the dentist's office. You can discuss your cosmetic goals with your experienced dentist, ask your questions and address your concerns. To ensure that the final result meets your smile goals, your dentist will create a treatment plan that takes into account your dental history and current oral health.
     

  • Collaborative Treatment Planning :

    Together, we will start a collaborative treatment planning session. Here we will go into the details of the result you want. If composite bonding is the best choice for you, the dentist will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan. A detailed treatment plan plays a crucial role in creating a plan tailored to your smile map.
     

  • Minimal Dental Preparation :

    Compared to some cosmetic procedures, composite bonding usually requires minimal or no tooth preparation.
    This conservative approach preserves the integrity of your natural teeth.
     

  • Color Tone Selection :

    You continue the procedure by choosing the perfect shade of composite resin together with your dentist.
    Your dentist will guide you in choosing a composite resin that matches the shade of your teeth.
     

  • Surface Etching :

    To ensure a strong bond between the composite resin and your tooth, the tooth surface is precisely etched and a conditioning fluid is applied. This step increases the resin adhesion.
     

  • Application of Composite Resin :

    In the hands of dentists, composite resins are like clay waiting to be shaped. Your dentist will meticulously apply the composite resin to the prepared tooth and make adjustments to remove imperfections, fill gaps or adjust the shape of your teeth to achieve the desired aesthetic goals.
     

  • Curing with Special Light:

    A special curing light is used to consolidate fusing. This not only hardens the composite resin, but also provides a durable and flexible surface that can withstand the daily rigors of chewing and biting.
     

  • Fine-tuning and Adjustments:

    Once the composite resin has hardened, your dentist meticulously makes the final adjustments. This includes improving the shape and making your bite feel comfortable and natural.
     

  • Polishing for a Flawless Finish:

    The final touch involves polishing the bonded tooth to obtain a flawless surface. This step increases the gloss of the composite resin, leaving you with a radiant and natural-looking smile.

  1. Immediate Care After the Procedure:

As the composite resin hardens during the process, it is recommended to avoid biting hard surfaces or using excessive force.
     

  2. Oral Hygiene Practices:

    Maintain your regular oral hygiene routine, but choose a soft-bristled toothbrush to avoid unnecessary abrasion on the bonded teeth. Gentle flossing is encouraged to keep the spaces between your teeth clean. Make sure not to use excessive force to avoid dislodging the bonding material.
     

  3. Diet Routines:

    Although composite bonding is durable, it is wise to pay attention to your diet in the beginning. Avoid biting into excessively hard or sticky foods that may affect the bonding material. After the procedure, your dentist will inform you in detail about which foods you should avoid for a certain period of time.
     

  4. Temperature Sensitivity:

    Some individuals may experience temporary sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures. This is normal and typically decreases over a few days to weeks as your teeth get used to the bonding material.
     

  5. Avoiding Staining Substances:
