Improve the appearance of cracked and discoloured teeth

Dental bonding is a technique that is used to improve the appearance of cracked and discoloured teeth. It is a relatively simple procedure that can be finished in couple of hours and is therefore quite an attractive option of Dental Tourist travelling for cosmetic reasons. Cosmetic bonding is commonly combined with contouring of the natural teeth.

What is Dental Bonding?

Bonding is a technique where composite resin or porcelain is bonded to the teeth. This has the affect of covering up minor flaws such as discolouration or cracks in your teeth. Bonding normally last for about 7 years. Bonding is commonly combined with contouring and reshaping to provide overall aesthetic improvements.

You might need a tooth bonding if:

If you have small gaps between your front teeth that you want corrected
If you teeth are chipped or cracked and you would like their appearance improved
If your teeth are stained or dis-coloured, bonding can be used to whiten your smile

What is the procedure like?

The procedure is relatively simply and can normally be completed in a couple of hours. At first a mild solutions is applied to your teeth that roughens up the enamel, so that a resin can be boned to them. Several layer of resin are then bonded using a special light that sets the resin into your teeth's surface. The resin is then further shaped and polished by the dentist.

What different types exist?

There are two varieties of dental bonding. The first type is appropriate for small corrections and can be fitted in a single visit to the dentist.

What is Dental Contouring?

Things to be aware of:

This is a permanent procedure; whatever is removed cannot be restored naturally
You teeth can become weaker if large amount of the tooth surface are removed

What is the procedure like?

Your dentist will take x-rays of the teeth that you want to reshape. This tells them the position of the inner parts of the tooth and helps determine how much of the tooth surface can be safely removed. The teeth are then marked up with a pen. The surface area to be removed is slowly stripped away using a drill or laser. The teeth are then shaped further using a rough paper and finally smoothed and polished. All of this can normally be done without the need for an anaesthetic.

A guide to dentistry in Ireland

Ireland's economy has experienced a breathless rise from Western Europe's poorest nation to the top of the world's wealth indicators. Over 30 years of E.U. membership has helped shape Ireland's health system into a modern and highly regulated model of good practice.

Interest from Irish patients have increased substantially for dentistry in neighbouring Northern Ireland where dental treatments cost less than in the Republic.

Benefits of Irish Dentistry

Regular checkups are a vital part of good oral healthcare and a local dentist is by far the best choice. A trusting relationship with your local dentist has immense benefits: Dental emergencies can be dealt with by a healthcare professional who knows your medical history inside out. Even for more expensive treatments the value of this close working knowledge can far outweigh price considerations, ensuring an ongoing beneficial, oral regimen.
