Bonding

Of all cosmetic and restorative procedures in dentistry, bonding is one of the easiest and most affordable ways to enhance your smile. Called bonding because tooth-colored resin is bonded to your teeth, the procedure is used to repair teeth that are discolored, unevenly shaped or chipped. At our office, we can even use bonding as an alternative to amalgam fillings if only a small filling is required.

Bonding is achieved by applying incredibly strong resin to the tooth in need of restoration. The procedure can usually be accomplished in one visit and allows you to keep most of your tooth’s original enamel, which makes bonding preferable to veneers in many cases. Once the right color resin has been chosen for your smile, Dr. Nina Kiani will slightly abrade your teeth to roughen the surface. Then a conditioning liquid is applied to help the resin adhere. The putty-like resin is then applied to your tooth and molded and smoothed until it is in the proper shape. It is hardened with an LED light. After the bonding material has hardened, Dr. Kiani will trim and shape it even more and then polish it until shines like a tooth. Altogether, the procedure usually takes between 30 minutes to an hour for one tooth.

If you’re unhappy with your teeth but unwilling to go as far as veneers, bonding can be used to improve your smile quickly and effectively. To schedule an appointment with our office in New York, NY, call us at (212) 279-8770. For more information, visit www.ninakianidds.com.

Crowns

If you have broken or chipped teeth, you know how difficult it is to eat and speak properly. Patients experiencing these issues have a lot more options than they would have in the past. One of the best options available is dental crowns.

 

A dental crown is essentially a “cap” that covers the damaged tooth. Unlike removable devices such as dentures, crowns can be used to improve appearance, shape or alignment of teeth. Crowns are cemented onto existing teeth or implants and can only be removed by the dentist. Dental crowns are used in many applications. Mostly, they are used to protect a weak tooth from a fracture or to restore a fractured tooth. Crowns are also used during the dental implant process to cover the abutment while the jaw bone grows around the implant. Having a crown will help you maintain proper chewing and speaking efficiency during the implant process.

 

Receiving a dental crown is a simple and non-invasive procedure that usually takes 2-3 visits. First, we take an impression of your tooth with a putty-like substance. Dr. Kiani will then create a temporary crown is made from a resin or acrylic material using the mold of your original tooth. We will also fit you with a temporary crown while the permanent crown is being created. Once we receive the permanent crown, we will remove the temporary crown and insert the permanent one. Dr. Kiani will secure the crown with cement.

Bonding

Here at our dental practice, we offer restorative, cosmetic, and endodontic treatments. One of the essential dental treatments we provide our patients is dental bonding, which is made from a resin that can be mixed to match the patient’s teeth. There are many reasons to get bonding, whether it is to fill a gap or help with teeth that are cracked and susceptible to breaking even further.

Our patients getting bonding benefit in the following ways:

• ·         Fill gaps between their teeth.


• ·         Fix cracked or chipped teeth.


• ·         Cover discoloration or staining of the teeth.


• ·         Provide an alternative to metal fillings for tooth decay or cavities.


• ·         Help correct misshapen teeth.


• ·         Cover exposed roots as a result of receding gums.

Before getting bonding done, no preparation is required and anesthesia usually isn’t needed. It is a simple procedure that is completed in a single visit. Bonding is a great alternative to other cosmetic options for filling cavities or fixing various imperfections in the patient’s teeth.
