Bonding and White Filling from Dr. Steve Bolur, D.S.S Protects and Improves California Smiles

When it comes to your smile, even small cracks, gaps and damage caused by decay can be unsightly.  In the past, filling or covering up such imperfections was typically accomplished through the use of a crown or filling, which usually involved the use of metal amalgam.  When placed upon the tooth the result was highly noticeable and unaesthetic.  The material could also create sensitivity to hot and cold substances, in addition to posing the risk of cracking as the metal naturally contracts and expands with temperature changes.  Fortunately, there is an alternative to conventional metal fillings that provide a more pleasing appearance and comfortable feel.  Dr. Steve Bolur, D.S.S of West Los Angles and Encino, CA provides boding and white filling as a better option for his patients.

Bonding and white filling can be used to correct both periodontal and cosmetic issues that commonly impact the teeth.  This method can be used to fill cavities, repair cracks and even fill in gaps.  Rather than using metal amalgam as the filling material, bonding and white filling is completed through the use of a white, composite resin which is affixed to the restoration site through a specialized adhesive gel.  Bonding and white filling provide numerous advantages over convention, amalgam options.  From a cosmetic focus, they do not discolor or appear unnatural on the surface of the tooth.  Their color makes them virtually undetectable, which makes them ideal for use virtually anywhere in the mouth—even highly visible parts of the smile.  Bonding and white filling are highly versatile when compared to fillings or crowns, especially in the case of minimal chipping or fractures.  Often, they don’t require as much modification of the existing tooth structure as would be needed in the case of an amalgam or crown.  The bonding process also frequently provides a more stable and secure placement.

Dr. Steve Bolur’s patients have been thrilled with the results of their bonding and white filling procedures.  Not only can they be used to address current need for smile improvements, they can be used to replace old fillings and achieve a more pleasing overall aesthetic.
