Bonding Treatment Procedure
- First the dentist cleans the tooth to remove any signs of bacteria or plaque.
- Next the dentist will engrave the tooth with an acidic gel that will open up the pores in the tooth's dentin. This helps the composite materials to bond to the tooth.
- After washing off the gel, the dentist will paint on the composite resin in a thin layer then expose this it to a curing light. The resin will go through the open pores of the tooth and harden there, providing a strong base for the new structure.
- Once the first layer is completed by curing, the dentist adds another layer and then continues adding extra layers until the tooth is back to its basic thickness.
- When the last layer of resin dries completely, the dentist reshapes the tooth slightly to give it the perfect shape, then cleans and polishes it.
