Tooth bonding

*Vikki* · 2009-02-01 19:56:22

Anyone ever had this done? For cosmetic purposes instead of a brace for a year? I am thinking of getting it done, but concerned about how strong it will be and how quick it would discolor. I think for one tooth that I want re-shaping is £150 which isn't too bad. Anyone had this done? Experiences with it?

How long ago does Xmas 2007 seem?

How to find a dentist.
1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.

'Cos if you'd had braces put on then, they'd be off by now.
