Ordinarily, you would relish the opportunity to spend more quality\ntime with your friends and family, but this year your smile isn\u2019t quite up to\nsnuff. Chips in your teeth and little gaps in your smile make you\nself-conscious about your appearance, and you don\u2019t want the people you love to\nsee you like this. Fortunately, there\u2019s an easy solution \u2013 cosmetic bonding. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodmandentalcare.com\/cosmetic-dentistry.html\">cosmetic\ndentist<\/a> in Annapolis is here to talk about how bonding can give you the\nsmile of your dreams just in time for the holiday season. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Cosmetic Bonding?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cosmetic bonding is a quick and easy procedure to correct\nminor imperfections in your smile. Your dentist will apply a highly malleable\ncomposite resin to your teeth, which is actually the same material used in\ntooth-colored fillings. This substance is a mixture of plastic and glass\nparticles. It can also be custom shaded to match the color of your existing\ntooth enamel, or even lighter to correct stains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, your dentist will choose the shade of the bonding\nmaterial to seamlessly blend in with the rest of your smile. Next, they will\napply the material in layers until the desired shape, size, and color are\nachieved. Finally, they will use the curing light to harden the composite resin\nand polish it to make it appear like a thoroughly natural part of your smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advantages of Bonding Over Porcelain Veneers <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have aesthetic imperfections in your smile, you might\nhave considered getting veneers. These super-thin wafers of dental porcelain are\nbonded to the front surfaces of teeth to mask the same kinds of flaws that\ncosmetic bonding can often fix. If you\u2019re torn between the two of them,\nhowever, it\u2019s wise to consider bonding. It offers several benefits over\nveneers, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cost <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers cost significantly more than bonding does. Furthermore,\nbonding is a bit more likely to be covered by your insurance, because it can be\nused to structurally repair a tooth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Time <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bonding can usually be completed in a single appointment,\nwhile veneers take two or more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Less Invasive Treatment <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Porcelain veneers require that some of your enamel be\nremoved to ensure they lay flat against your smile line. Bonding allows you to\nkeep more of your natural tooth structure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re feeling down about your smile this holiday season,\nask your dentist if cosmetic bonding in Annapolis is right for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodmandentalcare.com\/gary-goodman-dds.html\">Dr. A.
