What's the
difference between dental bonding using Composite and
Porcelain material?
Composite bonding is a tooth-colored
plastic resin material. Bonding can usually be placed in one
visit and is used many times to repair a smaller chip in a
tooth or to make aesthetic improvements in more than one
tooth. Whereas Cosmetic or Restorative work utilizing
Porcelain material, normally involves 2-3 visits. Because
they are made out of porcelain in a lab. Porcelain materials
are usually more aesthetic in terms of the spectrum of
colors, realism and translucency and can exactly mimic the
apperance of a natural tooth. Porcelain veneers are also
more of a long-term solution than bonding using Composite
material, as they do not stain, discolor, and are stronger
and durable.
