Veronica* broke her front tooth in a fall when she was a child. Another dentist had restored it with composite bonding, and it lasted for many years. Then one day she took a bite of a sandwich and, “snap!”, it broke off.
Seen the Same Day
She came in as an emergency, and within an hour I was able to fix it. No anesthesia was needed.
Why Bonding Was Right for Her
Veronica knows porcelain veneers would look better and last longer. But the timing isn’t right for her right now, and she wants to wait. She also knows a composite repair could break again, and she is comfortable with that risk.
3 Years Later
It has been about 3 years, and her bonding is holding on well. Veronica is very happy, most of all that we were able to see her quickly and give her such a seamless result. It exceeded her expectations.
