How Long Does Bonding Last on Teeth?


Posted on 7/15/2024 by Southern Family Dental Care

Generally, bonding material lasts between three and 10 years before requiring touch-ups or replacement. However, with proper care and maintenance, your bonding treatment should last up to 20 years.

Factors That Affect Durability of Bonding


After undergoing tooth bonding, you should take care of it to prevent fracture or abrasion. Several factors affect how long the bonded tooth should last, such as your brushing habits and diet. Below are the key factors affecting the durability of your tooth after bonding.

Quantity and Quality of Bonding Material Used


The quantity and quality of resin material used during the procedure is critical. Using too much or too little can lead to issues over time, potentially necessitating correction. Further, using poor-quality resin may affect the lifespan. Therefore, it is essential to rely on experienced and qualified dentists for the treatment to ensure long-lasting and satisfactory results.

Strength of the Tooth Surface


The durability of tooth bonding relies on the strength of the tooth surface where the bonding is applied. Healthy teeth can form a robust bond with the resin material, ensuring durability. Conversely, weak or unhealthy teeth may struggle to maintain the bonding, leading to potential chipping or breakage. This is one reason why you should always rush to your dentist as soon as you notice a chipped or broken tooth.

Personal Habits and Oral Health


Individual habits and oral hygiene practices significantly impact the lifespan of dental bonding. Consumption of staining food and drinks poses a risk to the longevity of the bonding. Avoid acidic and sugary foods such as sodas and candies. Further, poor oral hygiene can also result in damage and reduce the lifespan of the bonding material. You should, therefore, be more disciplined with your dental care routine.
