We Can Enhance Your Smile with Dental Bonding in Fairfield County, CT

If you’re looking for a new smile and the newfound confidence that will follow it, we have the perfect solution for you! Dental bonding is a quick, affordable way to address minor tooth imperfections to give you a natural-looking, beautiful smile. We use a tooth-colored composite resin, a material that's both strong and pliable, to shape and sculpt against your teeth and address your needs. Whether you have a chipped tooth, a small gap between your teeth, or even some discoloration, Dr. Klein and his skilled team can assist with dental bonding in Fairfield County, CT.

How can dental bonding transform your smile?

  • Say goodbye to chips and cracks: Did you accidentally chomp down on something a little too hard? No worries! Bonding can quickly fix minor chips and cracks in your teeth, restoring their original shape and appearance.
  • Close those pesky gaps: Do you have small gaps between your teeth that bother you? Dental bonding can fill those gaps, creating a more even and aesthetically pleasing smile.
  • Wave goodbye to discoloration: If your teeth have become stained over time, bonding can cover up those imperfections. Coffee, tea, and red wine beware!
  • Reshape your smile: Are there teeth that seem a little out of place? Bonding can be used to reshape slightly uneven teeth, giving your smile a more symmetrical look.

The best part? Unlike veneers or crowns, dental bonding is done chairside in one visit. We typically don't need to remove any significant tooth structure.


Let's Talk About the Dental Bonding Process

  1. Consultation: We'll schedule a consultation to discuss your concerns and goals. We'll examine your teeth and make sure bonding is the right solution for you.
  2. Color Matching: Next, we'll carefully select a shade of composite resin that perfectly matches the color of your surrounding teeth. This ensures a natural-looking and seamless repair.
  3. Preparing the Tooth: We'll gently prepare the surface of the tooth to be bonded. This involves removing a tiny amount of enamel to create a rough surface for the resin to adhere to.
  4. Applying and Sculpting the Resin: Now comes the artistry! We'll apply the composite resin on the tooth and meticulously sculpt it into the desired shape and size.
  5. Lightening Up: Once the resin is sculpted, we'll use a special light to harden it. It's like magic – the resin becomes solid and durable in just seconds!
  6. The Finishing Touches: After the resin is hardened, we'll polish it to create a smooth, natural-looking finish. You'll be amazed at how the bonding blends with your surrounding teeth!

Why You Should Consider Dental Bonding

We all know the feeling – you want a smile that makes you shine, but you want it to be cost-effective. That's where dental bonding comes in! It's like the budget-friendly superhero of smile transformations. Bonding won't break the bank, and it's a time-saver – most procedures can be done in just one appointment.


Frequently Asked Questions


Will the bonding procedure hurt?

In most cases, dental bonding does not require anesthesia. However, if you have any concerns about discomfort, we can discuss using a local anesthetic to numb the area.


How long does the dental bonding procedure take?

Bonding procedures are typically quick and can be completed in as little as 30-60 minutes, depending on the complexity of your repair.


Will my teeth be sensitive after bonding?

You might experience some slight sensitivity after bonding. This sensitivity usually subsides within a few days. If the sensitivity persists, you can give our office a call.


How long will dental bonding last?

Dental bonding can typically last for 3-7 years with proper care.


Can I whiten my teeth after getting dental bonding?

While whitening can be safe for natural teeth, it may not affect the bonding material in the same way. It's important to discuss teeth whitening with us before proceeding to ensure a consistent overall shade.
