While that\u2019s certainly true, there are some cases where a faster and less expensive option will work just as well: cosmetic bonding in Naples. Usually done in just one visit, this procedure involves bonding white filling material to the front teeth to fix various cosmetic flaws. This is the same material that\u2019s used to fill cavities on the back teeth, so it\u2019s quite strong and durable. Having said that, it will also last much longer if it\u2019s well maintained, just like all dental work. Keep reading to learn more about the benefits of this procedure and how you can maintain it over the long-term!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>What Kinds of Flaws Can Be Fixed With Cosmetic Bonding?<\/h2>\n<p>Bonding is an incredibly versatile procedure that\u2019s perfect for all of the following issues:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lengthening short or chipped teeth<\/li>\n<li>Cavities on the front teeth<\/li>\n<li>Discoloration<\/li>\n<li>Minor gaps<\/li>\n<li>Misshapen teeth<\/li>\n<li>Protection for exposed roots that occur when the gums recede<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How Long Does Cosmetic Bonding Last?<\/h2>\n<p>The average lifespan of bonding is about 3-10 years. It\u2019s difficult to give a more precise estimate because it depends on several factors, including the location of the bonding.<\/p>\n<p>For example, bonding on the biting edge of a front tooth will have a higher likelihood of chipping because these surfaces take more biting force than other areas. Or, if someone doesn\u2019t have good brushing and flossing habits, their bonding has a higher chance of developing decay around it. Thankfully, there are some easy things you can do to help your bonding last longer.<\/p>\n<h2>How Can You Care For Your Cosmetic Bonding?<\/h2>\n<p>Here are some easy tips to get the most out of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.islandcoastdentistry.com\/cosmetic-bonding.html\">cosmetic bonding<\/a>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Get regular dental care<\/strong> &#8211; It\u2019s important to see a cosmetic dentist in Naples regularly so they can catch any potential problems early on, such as decay around the edge of your bonding.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use care when chewing <\/strong>\u2013 Cut foods such as apples that are hard or crunchy into smaller pieces instead of biting directly into them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Avoid bad oral habits <\/strong>\u2013 It\u2019s a good idea to avoid chewing on anything like ice or hard candies that can cause chips or cracks.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maintain good hygiene <\/strong>\u2013 Brush at least twice a day for two minutes and aim to floss once a day. An electric toothbrush is a great choice because it provides 6,000-30,000 brush strokes per minute and automatically stays on for two minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Cosmetic bonding is a fast, inexpensive way to get a beautiful smile.
