Because composite is pliable and easy to work with, it\u2019s ideal for repairing small fractures and chipping. Bonding can also restore issues such as:\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Discoloration and staining<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Filling in the space left by gum recession<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Repairing size discrepancies and filling small gaps<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nComposite can be customized to match your existing teeth and naturally complement your smile. It\u2019s durable so you can rely on your restoration for many years. The treatment can be done quickly and can typically be completed during one appointment, so you\u2019ll be enjoying your new smile in no time.\r\n<h2>Other Cosmetic Options<\/h2>\r\nIf your imperfection is more than dental bonding can repair, your cosmetic dentist in Melbourne may recommend other options for restoring your smile such as porcelain veneers. This is an ideal repair for one or multiple teeth, and veneers can be used to customize and enhance your entire smile.\r\n\r\nPorcelain veneers are directly bonded to your tooth, so they\u2019re ideal for repairing similar issue as cosmetic bonding, but a veneer covers your entire tooth. They can also be customized to create the smile of your dreams. They\u2019re also easy to care for as you\u2019ll brush and floss normally. With great home care, your veneers can potentially last for 12-15 years.\r\n<h2>Learn More at Exceptional Dentistry<\/h2>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyrosedmd.com\/meet-doctor-rose.html\">Dr. Beverly Rose<\/a> offers many great options for cosmetic dentistry, whether you need a small repair, or complete smile makeover.
