El Paso, TX offers cosmetic bonding

With so many cosmetic improvements that can be made to your pearly whites, it can be hard to choose the best option for your needs. Professional whitening can lift surface-level stains and gum contouring can fix a gummy grin. But what do you do if you have discoloration below the enamel? This may appear as white, yellow, or brown spots on your pearly whites which can be caused by trauma, fluoride overuse, and other problems. To disguise the appearance of these problems, Sunny Smiles in El Paso, TX, uses composite resin to bond to the area. This simple correction can leave you with an even-appearing smile.
