How much does dental bonding cost?

Dental bonding typically costs $200–$600 per tooth, varying with the size of the area and amount of artistry involved. Bonding is far less expensive than veneers ($1,000–$2,500) for minor cosmetic fixes. It is rarely covered by insurance when purely cosmetic.

What is the bonding procedure like?

The dentist roughens the tooth surface, applies bonding liquid, then sculpts composite resin onto the tooth and cures it with a UV light. The process takes 30–60 minutes per tooth, usually without anesthesia. Final polishing gives a natural appearance.

Does dental bonding hurt?

Bonding is typically painless and rarely requires anesthesia since enamel removal is minimal. There is no recovery time. Sensitivity to cold for 1–2 days is occasional but mild.

How long does dental bonding last?

Bonding typically lasts 5–7 years, with some lasting 10+ years with excellent care. Bonding chips and stains more readily than porcelain, especially from coffee, wine, and tobacco. Touch-ups or re-bonding are straightforward.

Is bonding right for me?

Bonding is ideal for chipped corners, small gaps, minor shape issues, and discolored teeth that don't respond to whitening. Heavy grinders and patients seeking long-lasting color stability often choose veneers instead. A consultation determines the best option.
