How long does composite bonding last?

Commit to Consistent Home Care

Taking good care of your smile with consistent daily brushing and flossing protects you from the damage plaque buildup can cause. 

Using an electric toothbrush makes brushing simple and effective, and adding an antibacterial mouth rinse to your routine can help prevent plaque and bacteria buildup. 

Routine Preventive Check-Ups with Your Lower Plenty Dentist

Regular visits to your dentist will allow them to detect any problems with your dental bonding early on when they are easier to repair. Composite bonding may wear over time and could be repaired or replaced to promote longevity. 

Avoid Damaging Foods 

Biting directly into hard foods like apples, crusty bread, or carrots can damage your bonding, causing it to chip or break. Instead, cut hard foods into smaller pieces that are easier to chew and enjoy and protect your teeth from damage.
