Teeth bonding offers a fast, affordable solution to repair chips, cracks, gaps, and discoloration while enhancing your smile. At Capitol Hill Dental Arts, Dr. Ashish Rastogi skillfully applies high-quality composite resin to sculpt and reshape teeth, delivering seamless, natural-looking results.
We use a tooth-colored composite resin that closely matches your natural enamel. This flexible material adheres directly to the tooth, allowing us to mold and contour it with precision. Dental bonding serves as a cost-effective alternative to veneers, producing strong, long-lasting, and aesthetically pleasing outcomes.

Teeth Bonding Procedure (Step-by-Step)

We apply the composite resin directly to the tooth and sculpt it precisely to achieve the ideal shape. - Curing & Hardening
We use a curing light to instantly harden the resin, locking it firmly in place. - Shaping & Polishing
We contour and polish the bonded tooth to create a smooth, natural-looking finish.
