Porcelain Veneers and Dental Bonding in Los Gatos
A
mong the values shared by our team at James Lin DMD is that we should offer as many options as possible for your oral health care. Choices are central to our mission to empower your dental health decision-making. So, when resolving issues in the front-facing surfaces of your most visible teeth, we take this seriously.
Dental bonding and porcelain veneers are two of the most popular treatments in this area. Each choice has advantages, and we will help you decide which is best for you.
What Conditions Respond to These Restorations?
Intrinsic and extrinsic staining – If your teeth suffer from permanent or genetic staining, the cause may be extrinsic (on the outside surface) or intrinsic (below the surface). Either way, porcelain veneers and dental bonding can mask these stains.
Damaged or crooked teeth – If you have a tooth that is chipped, cracked, appears uneven, or all the above, either treatment may align tooth edges and hide chips.
Uneven tooth spacing – Small gaps between teeth, also known as diastemas, can cause problems with appearance and how your teeth function. When we close those gaps, our teeth are less likely to shift.
Dr. Lin performs dental bonding entirely in-office with skill and artistry. He uses special instruments to mold composite dental resin while still pliable to achieve the desired shape and look. This material and method result in an attractive and durable restoration that may last years.
