Dental Bonding Breakage

Dental bonding is used on teeth that have been chipped, cracked, or fractured. It aesthetically resembles tooth enamel but lacks the quantity of strength. If our doctors at Bridge Smiles Dental Group P.A. have corrected your smile with dental bonding in the past, we want to take the time to talk about what to do if the bonding dissolves, or breaks apart.


Tooth enamel is the strongest bone in the human body and once it’s gone, it’s gone for good. If you consume a diet that is high in acidity, your dental bonding is at risk for breakage. Additionally, if you eat foods that are crunchy, this may chip the enamel and put your smile back at square one. If you notice a slight crack in a tooth that has been bonded, visit us immediately as this is a sign it needs repair.


If you have questions regarding dental bonding, please give us a call to discuss your treatment options.
