DENTAL BONDING

A bonding is a composite resin that is used as an alternative to amalgams and veneers. This is an excellent cosmetic option for those patients who do not want the look of silver in their mouths and do not want the expense of veneers. Bondings can be used on teeth that are decayed, cracked, or stained. Although composite resins are cosmetically pleasing and easily placed, their durability is not as strong as other types of restorations.

Composite resins generally have an average lifespan of 4–7 years, although longevity can be influenced by patient-specific variables such as occlusal forces, dietary habits, and oral hygiene practices. Over time, the resin material may begin to exhibit signs of surface wear, marginal breakdown, or chipping. Once these changes compromise the integrity, aesthetics, or functionality of the restoration, replacement becomes necessary. Regular recall examinations allow early detection of such wear, ensuring timely intervention and maintenance of optimal oral health.
