It is best to avoid doing things like chewing on ice cubes or pens. Hard foods and candies (in excess) can also cause damage to your bond as well as harming your natural teeth, so it’s best to avoid them anyway(especially with a history of chipping or breaking teeth).

 Be aware that dental bonds(composite resins) do not resist long-term stains(the same goes for your enamel). So you’re more likely to experience long-term discoloration if you drink lots of coffee and red wine or if you smoke.

Teeth bonding is a simple procedure that doesn’t even require anesthesia in most cases.

The first stage involves choosing a composite resin color that’s as close as possible to the color of your natural tooth (Your dentist can use a teeth color chart to make sure they choose the perfect color).

Then, your dentist prepares to bond the dental bond(composite resin) to your tooth.

First, your dentist will create a rough surface and apply a bonding agent.

 This rough surface makes it easier for the liquid and the composite to stick.

After that, your dentist will add the dental bond(composite resin) to the damaged area and mold it to fix the damage and enhance the shape.

Everything then dries with UV light.

Tooth bonding is the best choice for your teeth if the injury is minor and your teeth aren’t severely decayed.

Plus, tooth bonding is ideal for people who are already satisfied with the current color of their teeth. If you are not satisfied with your natural teeth color and want to whiten your teeth, you need to do it before asking your dentist for teeth bonding.

 Your dentist will choose a dental bond similar to your current teeth color, so if you whiten your teeth, later on, your natural enamel will get lighter, but your bond will have the same color as your natural teeth from before(won’t change color).
