Dental bonding uses a soft, shapeable resin that is quickly hardened by a special light. Your dentist at the Tahquitz Dental Group Palm Springs first prepares the material to match the color of your teeth. Then the surface of your teeth is cleaned and prepared for the resin.

With meticulous care, your dentist applies the resin to your teeth and molds it into the proper form. Once the application is done, a special light cures the resin and bonds it to your teeth. You may need additional layers as finishing touches. The bonded resin is then trimmed and polished so that it matches your other teeth and completes your smile.
