Bonding
is the mechanical/chemical adhesion of a dental restorative material to the
natural tooth. After the tooth is specially cleaned and prepared, a bonding
liquid is painted on the tooth and set with a special high intensity light.
Normally a tooth colored material called a composite is bonded to
restore an area of the tooth damaged by decay or trauma. It is also common
to bond porcelain to teeth. Large areas of decay or extensive trauma damage
to the front teeth are best restored by bonding porcelain veneers, inlays/onlays or crowns.
