Bonding, crowns, and bridges

Bonding, crowns, and bridges are all types of treatment used by cosmetic dentists. Bonding is a way to fix teeth with composite resin/tooth-colored fillings. Crowns are caps for teeth made out of gold or porcelain. Bridges replace missing teeth using one or more dental implants covered by the gum tissue. There are also removable appliances called partial dentures that can be used when several adjacent teeth must be replaced individually. Dentists use these different treatments when they think it will improve your appearance (cosmetic) or provide you with better oral health (restorative). How much time should you expect to spend in the dental chair? The average appointment ranges from 45 minutes to 2 hours.
