Did you have a minor flaw in your smile that you wanted fixed? Whether it was a stubborn stain, small chip, or a short gap, you might\u2019ve gotten dental bonding<\/a> as an effective solution. It doesn\u2019t give a dramatic change, but it\u2019s often noticeable enough that you may feel more confident about your smile afterward. You might want to help your results last as long as possible, so here are four tips to keep to.<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Brush and Floss Every Day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A simple way you can keep your dental bonding in great shape is by having a good oral hygiene routine. You should brush twice a day to remove bacteria that can erode the tooth supporting the cosmetic work. Flossing once daily is crucial in properly cleaning out your smile, so you don\u2019t develop any cavities, gum disease, and the like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limit Staining Foods<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the first few days after your treatment, your results are more prone to staining. You should avoid dark-colored foods and drinks to prevent any discoloration. It\u2019s best to limit items like tomato sauce, coffee, berries, red wine, and soda as they all have pigments that can cause a yellow tint. If you do have them, then rinse with water to lower your risk of this flaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Break Bad Oral Habits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While dental bonding is made from high-quality materials, it can become damaged if you aren\u2019t careful. The composite resin it\u2019s made of can chip when you use your teeth as tools or eat hard foods. Not only that, but these habits can also damage your natural teeth, leading to new imperfections that leave you self-conscious! Simply adjust your diet or grab the right tool for the job; that way, you have nothing to worry about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get a Nightguard for Bruxism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you tend to grind or clench your teeth at night, you should get a nightguard<\/a> to protect your oral health and cosmetic results. The pressure from this habit can lead to your results breaking and worn enamel. Since this is often done subconsciously during sleep, it can be tricky to spot, but your dentist can notice the signs and give you an effective solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end, your provider is here to make your dental bonding last. Everything above is great to do at home, but they can monitor its condition and ensure it stays strong for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
