Which part of the city do I come to for bonding?+
Winnipeg North is where you’ll find us, at Unit 5, 2358 McPhillips Street, Winnipeg, MB R2V 4J6. Use the form here to request bonding, or phone (204) 338-3003 and speak with staff directly.
Is the bonding made in a laboratory?+
Generally no. Composite is added and sculpted chairside, which is why many modest changes can skip laboratory fabrication altogether. Other kinds of restoration may be fabricated differently.
Does the dentist have to remove enamel for bonding?+
Often very little or none. How much preparation is needed depends on the tooth and the change planned, which the dentist can explain once it has been examined.
Why does the bite matter for a cosmetic treatment?+
Added resin changes how teeth contact. An edge that takes more force than it can handle may chip, and an uncomfortable contact is noticeable every time you close, so the bite is checked and adjusted.
Can resin be matched exactly to my natural tooth?+
Close relationship is the realistic goal. Enamel has multiple optical qualities, so several shades may be layered instead of relying on one uniform colour.
Does composite pick up stain?+
It can absorb or collect stain, and its polish may fade over time. Tea, coffee, red wine, and tobacco tend to make those changes easier to see.
