Bonding is a quick and affordable way to repair many cosmetic flaws or injuries. It can yield dramatic results in a single office visit, quickly filling in ugly gaps between teeth and repairing chips and cracks.
Bonding essentially hides any natural flaws through the placement of a thin plastic coating on the front surface of the teeth. Dr. Kneib uses dental bonding to sculpt individual teeth with a special tooth-like material that looks, acts, and feels like the real thing.
After treating the tooth surface, Dr. Kneib applies a putty-like bonding material that is then sculpted and shaped to suit your needs. A high-intensity light causes the plastic to harden, and then the new surface is smoothed and polished.
And, as you can see below, the tooth-colored fillings by Dr. Kneib can substantially improve the beauty of your teeth, too. For individuals who meet the requirements, any of the above mentioned dental procedures can be accomplished in-house during one appointment.

Dental Bonding FAQs
What is dental bonding?
Bonding by Dr. Kneib can yield dramatic results in a single office visit. Bonding essentially hides any natural flaws through the placement of a thin plastic coating on the front surface of the teeth.
After treating the tooth's surface, Dr. Kneib applies a putty-like bonding material that is then sculpted, shaped, and colored to suit your needs. A high-intensity light causes the plastic to harden, after which the new surface is smoothed and polished.
Bonding can lighten stains, close gaps, and even alter crooked or malformed teeth. At Kneib Dentistry, we can even utilize it to change the shape or color of a single tooth or, if necessary, to remake your entire smile.
