Dental Bonding- Dental bonding is a technique used to correct imperfections with your teeth to give you a better-looking smile. Bonding is used to repair chipped teeth, decayed teeth, and cracked teeth. Bonding involves applying a tooth-colored resin material to the teeth and hardening it with a light. This bonds the material to the teeth to improve a person's smile. 2. Dental Crowns- A dental crown is a dental prosthesis which replaces the visible part of a tooth. A dental crown functions to strengthen teeth, restore their original shape, and improve their appearance. Dental crowns are also used to hold dental bridges in place and cover dental implants. 3.

A dental bridge can restore your smile, improve your appearance, and take years off your look. Who doesn't want to look better- or younger? 4. Cosmetic Fillings- Cosmetic fillings, or tooth- colored fillings, are made of composite resin and glass particles. They are cemented onto the existing teeth using a bonding agent.
