Dentist of Bergen County Discusses Solutions to a Chipped Tooth

    BOGOTA, NJ, July 28, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Teeth are remarkably strong, but they can chip, fracture or break. Teeth usually break as a result of trauma -- from biting down on something hard, for example, or from a blow to the face. A child may fracture a tooth falling off a bike or curb during play. Cavities that have weakened the tooth also can cause chipping or fractures. When a large piece of the tooth breaks off, residents of Bergen County seek the help of Dr. Sherzoy, an expert in dental fixtures. For nearly 20 years, Dr. Sherzoy has helped many patients regain their beautiful healthy smiles.

Tooth bonding is a dental cosmetic procedure where a dentist adheres composite resin onto affected teeth. Dental bonding is a great way to fix many tooth imperfections. It can be used to whiten your teeth, fix chipped or cracked teeth, replace silver fillings that you may currently have, replace the decayed parts of your teeth, and is a great instant remedy for 'accidentally' broken front teeth.

Bonding is a composite resin filling placed in the back teeth as well as the front teeth. Composites are the solution for restoring decayed teeth, making cosmetic improvements and even changing the color of your teeth or the reshaping of teeth. Bonding will lighten any stains you may have, close up minor gaps and can be used to correct crooked teeth. Basically, bonding will cover any natural flaws applying a thin coating of a plastic material on the front surface of your teeth. After this, your cosmetic dentist will apply a bonding material and sculpt, color and shape it to provide a pleasing result. A high-intensity light then hardens the plastic, and the surface is finely polished.

Dr. Sherzoy says, "Dental bonding can replace up to half of your tooth. Rather than crafting the replacement in a lab, dental bonding uses a material that is sculpted to your tooth and then polished to a beautiful finish." Residents that have close, small gaps between your front teeth, or have chipped or cracked teeth may be candidates for bonding. Bonding is also used for patients who have discolored teeth, uneven teeth, gum recession or tooth decay. Bonding material is porous, so smokers will find that their bonding will turn yellow.
