What is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is a simple, minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that uses tooth-colored composite resin to improve the appearance of your smile. It’s ideal for repairing chips, closing small gaps, reshaping uneven teeth, or covering stains—without the need for crowns or veneers.
At Vail Dental Design, Dr. Alexandra Urbana offers precise, artistic bonding treatments that restore the beauty of your smile in just one visit. If you’re looking for a quick, effective way to enhance your teeth with natural-looking results, dental bonding could be the perfect solution.
The Benefits of Dental Bonding
Quick, Same-Day Results
Most dental bonding treatments can be completed in a single visit—no waiting for a lab or multiple appointments. You’ll leave with a refreshed, confident smile the same day.
Conservative and Comfortable
Bonding doesn’t require removing natural enamel, making it one of the most conservative cosmetic options. The procedure is gentle, painless, and typically doesn’t require any anesthesia.
Affordable Smile Enhancement
Compared to treatments like veneers or crowns, bonding is a more affordable option that still delivers dramatic cosmetic improvements—perfect for patients looking to enhance their smile on a budget.

The Dental Bonding Process
Tooth Preparation & Application
After lightly roughening the surface of your tooth, we’ll apply the resin and sculpt it by hand to achieve the desired shape and contour. Once perfected, the material is hardened using a special curing light.
Personalized Consultation
Dr. Urbana will begin by discussing your smile goals and evaluating whether bonding is the right choice for your needs. We’ll select a composite resin shade that blends beautifully with your natural teeth.
Final Polishing
The bonded area is carefully polished for a smooth, natural finish. The result is a seamless enhancement that looks and feels just like your real tooth.
