What is a Build-up?

Sometimes teeth can have an unnatural shape, or are much smaller than they should be. In these cases, it’s possible to have bonding or veneers installed, which makes your tooth look like any other.

Why do I need this?

Bonding will make your abnormal tooth look like a more well-developed one in your mouth.

 

How does it work?

Filling material is built up and shaped to look like a natural tooth. Another option is to have a veneer placed. A veneer is made of porcelain and is like a shell that is cemented over your natural tooth.
