How it usually goes

  1. Get it ready — We clean and lightly roughen the tooth.

  2. Add resin — Tooth-colored resin goes on in layers.

  3. Harden and polish — A blue light hardens it. Then we polish.

Quick questions

A tooth broke at the gum. Can it be fixed?

Sometimes. An exam and X-ray tell us what's possible.

Will it match my teeth?

We pick a color that blends in.

Is it done in one visit?

Often, yes. An exam tells us what's right for you.

Every smile is different. An exam tells us what's right for you.
