What Can Cosmetic Bonding Do For Your Smile?

Dr. Stutman can use cosmetic bonding material to easily improve the color, shape, and arrangement or your teeth in just one office visit. Cosmetic bonding is incredibly versatile and requires very little preparation. It can be sued to correct discolored or chipped teeth, close spaces or gaps between teeth, elongate teeth, or change their shade and form.

How Does Cosmetic Bonding Work?

First, Dr. Stutman will place a thin, clear plastic film between the tooth to be bonded and neighboring teeth. Next, a mild chemical will be applied to the tooth to give it a rough texture. This helps the composite resin bond with the enamel of your tooth. The composite resin that matches closest to the color of your natural tooth is then chosen. Dr. Stutman will then apply the composite resin in layers. A special curing light is used to harden each layer. After the last layer of composite resin is hardened, Dr. Stutman will shape and polish the material to blend perfectly with your tooth. The finished tooth will look completely smooth and natural.

South Shore Dental Care proudly restores smiles daily throughout Massapequa, NY, Long Island, Merrick, Bellmore, Wantagh, and the surrounding communities.

How Do CEREC One- Hour Crowns Work?

  • First, Dr. Stutman will give you a full dental examination to determine that a CEREC restoration is most appropriate for your treatment. If it is, Dr. Stutman will prepare the affected tooth for restoration. Any decay or infected tissue will then be removed.
  • Next, Dr. Stutman will take digital impressions of your prepared tooth. These digital images are then sent to the CEREC computers for processing. This will only take a few minutes.
  • Next, the CEREC computer will convert your dental impressions into a 3-D virtual model. Dr. Stutman will use this information to design your crown. After a few more minutes, the design is finalized and sent to an in- office milling unit to be fabricated.
  • The CEREC milling unit will create your dental crown based on the final design. The crown is crafted from a ceramic block that perfectly matches the shade of your teeth. This step takes no more than twenty minutes to complete.
  • Finally, Dr. Stutman will place and adjust your new crown for proper fitting, and make any revisions if necessary. If the crown fits properly, it is bonded over the tooth, and thoroughly polished.

Why Choose CEREC One- Hour Crowns?

We strive to make your dental care as fast and efficient as possible. With CEREC one-hour crown restorations you can save time and money. By cutting your dentist office visits in half, you will spend less time in the dentist chair and you will save the extra expense of a second visit.
