Sometimes, accidents happen. You may fall and chip your tooth. Sometimes a tooth can become discolored from medication or illness. Dr. Fadi Zaknoun performs bonding and contouring to improve these minor cosmetic flaws at his office in Wareham, MA. This quick cosmetic treatment uses composite resin (the same material used for tooth-colored fillings) to cover discoloration, reduce spaces between gapped teeth, make a tooth longer, or even improve the shape of a tooth.

About UsDental Bonding and Contouring FAQs
What is dental bonding and contouring?
Dental bonding and contouring are cosmetic dentistry procedures that Cape Cod Dental offers to improve the appearance of your teeth. Bonding uses a tooth-colored resin to repair minor imperfections, while contouring involves reshaping the tooth to improve its form and function.
Is the process painful?
Many patients at Cape Cod Dental report minimal discomfort during the dental bonding and contouring procedures. Local anesthesia may be administered, but it is often not necessary for bonding. Contouring might require anesthesia, especially if a substantial amount of enamel is being removed.
How long does it take to complete the procedures?
At Cape Cod Dental, dental bonding typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes per tooth. Contouring, on the other hand, can take a bit longer, depending on the complexity of the case. Both procedures can often be completed in a single visit.
