Problem

Teeth that are chipped, discolored, uneven, stained or gapped.

Solution

Bonding with composite resin. The composite resin used in bonding is a tooth-colored material that is applied directly to the enamel of teeth and shaped to correct the patient's aesthetic concern. When exposed to a special ultraviolet light, the resin hardens into place.

Alternatives

Porcelain veneers and crowns, while more expensive, last considerably longer than bonding.
