GC explains how minimally invasive composite bonding can be a simple, cost effective way to build your cosmetic dentistry practice.
Did you know that more than one third of adult patients are unhappy with their smile,* something that can have a considerable negative impact on their daily lives?
A confident smile can significantly boost self-esteem, improve social interactions and have a positive influence on stress reduction and overall wellbeing.
Although many people seek cosmetic dental treatment, potential barriers such as perceived affordability, dental phobia and negative expectations about treatment duration can deter patients from going ahead.
What many potential patients may be surprised to learn is that even with small and subtle changes to their teeth, there is the potential to greatly improve their overall smile aesthetics.
For dental clinicians, the latest innovations in restorative materials and minimally invasive techniques have made providing immediate aesthetic outcomes for their patients faster, easier and more cost-effective than ever before. GC has everything they require to achieve this and grow their dental cosmetic business as a result.
Minimally invasive composite bonding
Composite bonding preserves much of the natural tooth, can be cost-effective for patients, and provides immediate aesthetic results. It is ideal for closing small gaps and treating cracked, chipped and misshapen teeth.
The most common flaws that are easily restored with minimally invasive composite restorations are:
- Closure of diastema
- Closure of black triangles
- Restoring incisal and canine cusp wear
- Restoring abfractions.
