Dental bonding is a cosmetic dental procedure that involves applying a tooth-colored resin material to repair or improve the appearance of teeth. This technique can address issues such as chips, cracks, gaps, or discoloration. The resin is shaped and polished to match the natural look of surrounding teeth, providing a seamless finish. The process of dental bonding is typically quick and can often be completed in a single visit to the dentist. It is a cost-effective solution compared to other cosmetic treatments, such as veneers or crowns, and usually requires minimal preparation of the tooth.
