Cosmetic Dentistry - Frisco, McKinney, Plano, and Richardson, Texas

Dental bonding offers an effective way to treat a range of dental imperfections. Bonding involves applying a tooth-colored resin material to a tooth to conceal imperfections, including chips, cracks, and discolorations which don’t respond well to tooth whitening treatments. Dental bonding can also be used to widen or lengthen a tooth and fill in gaps to create a more even smile.

During the dental bonding procedure, Dr. Bosher applies the resin material to the tooth and sculpts it into the desired shape. Then, a special light is used to harden the resin material, and the tooth is smoothed and polished to a natural sheen. The result of dental bonding is similar to porcelain veneers; however, bonding can be completed in a single office visit instead of two visits, as needed for veneers. During your consultation at our practice in Plano, Dr. Bosher can help you decide if porcelain veneers, dental bonding, tooth whitening, or another cosmetic option will best meet your needs.

Porcelain dental veneers are extremely versatile. They can be used to conceal cracks, chips, and discolorations. At his North Dallas practice serving Plano, Frisco, McKinney, and Richardson, Texas, Dr. Bosher also uses porcelain dental veneers to treat small gaps and misalignments. He can improve the appearance of one tooth or several teeth with veneers, and even place them on all of the front teeth for a smile makeover. The porcelain is color-matched to your surrounding natural teeth so that they blend in perfectly. And, best of all, porcelain veneers look extremely natural. Like natural tooth enamel, porcelain is translucent meaning that light passes through rather than reflecting off its surface.
