Consulate Dental Plans, What is Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is tooth-colored material which can be used to fill in gaps or change the color of teeth. Dental bonding normally requires only a single office visit. Although dental bonding can lasts several years, it is more susceptible to staining or chipping than other forms of restoration. Bonding can also is be used as a tooth-colored filling for small cavities. Additionally, it can be used to close spaces between teeth or cover the entire outside surface of a tooth to change its color and shape.
Dental bonding is not always covered by dental insurance. Make sure to check with your dental insurance policy to confirm benefits before having it done so that you are aware what your out of pocket cost is going to be.
