I Have Recently Got Over Some Gum Problems. Would Bonding Help Me Fill The Gaps Left Behind?
Q.
Hello Dr Moore, I’ve got an aesthetic problem due to periodontics. I’ve had a lot of gum treatment now I think it is starting to get better. I maintain a regular routine with my hygienist every 3 month for a good cleaning. My front teeth look longer than the other ones and there are gaps, my dentist’s advice to me is to put composite bonding resin to fill the gaps and file the longest one, but some dentists say that composite bonding is not really good and can affect the gums and when they file the tooth it can become more sensitive. What do you think?

Hello and thank you for getting in touch. It does sound like composite bonding could be the best solution for you as it’s quick and easy to place and repair. You should seek out an experienced cosmetic dentist for the best results. Now that your gum problems are under control, it’s less likely that the gum problems you suffer from should cause problems. I hope this helps to clarify your situation. Regards, Dr Andrew Moore.
