Whats 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.
