In recent years aesthetic dentistry has been developing at an impressive pace, and patients no longer look only for healthy teeth – they expect a smile that expresses individuality, confidence and style.

Aesthetics today doesn't mean a „Hollywood“ smile with dazzling white crowns from top to bottom. Sometimes small corrections to shape and color can achieve impressive results. That's exactly why bonding has become a trend in aesthetic dentistry – with a minimally invasive approach it lets us achieve an exceptionally beautiful, healthy and natural-looking new smile.

What is bonding?

Bonding is a non-invasive dental procedure in which a combination of several types and shades of composite (the same material fillings are made from) is applied. This lets us correct various imperfections in the smile – such as chips, irregularities, gaps between the teeth or a change in their shape and color. The procedure is quick, gentle and has an immediate effect. It's usually done in a single visit.

The advantages of bonding:

✅ Fast results – your smile can be transformed in just one visit;

✅ Painless and gentle procedure – no grinding down of the tooth enamel is required

✅ More affordable price compared to other aesthetic solutions;

✅ Reversibility – bonding can be removed or replaced if needed;

✅ Natural look – when done precisely and with a good eye, the composite blends with the tooth so that it becomes an unnoticeable, inseparable part of it.

Who is bonding right for?

Bonding is a great choice for patients who:

• have small cosmetic imperfections – such as cracks, chips or slight gaps;

• want a more even shape or length of the teeth;

• want a whiter smile but aren't suitable for whitening due to worn enamel;

• are looking for a more affordable alternative to veneers, without compromising on aesthetics.

It's important to note that bonding isn't suitable for severe occlusal problems or for patients who clench/grind their teeth – in these cases a more durable solution is considered.

Interesting facts and myths:

Myth: Bonding is only a temporary procedure. Fact: Bonding isn't a „temporary measure“, but an aesthetic solution that can last for years with proper care and professional execution. The materials we use are high-quality and wear-resistant.

Myth: All the teeth have to be ground down. Fact: With bonding the teeth aren't ground down – this makes it a gentle and reversible method.

Myth: Bonding looks artificial. Fact: When performed by an experienced aesthetic dentist like Dr Riahi, the result is exceptionally fine and natural.
