Got a chipped, cracked, or discolored tooth? Dr. Derek Gatta offers cosmetic dental bonding in Boca Raton—a fast, affordable way to correct small flaws and restore your confidence in just one appointment.

Bonding uses a tooth-colored resin that’s applied, sculpted, and polished to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. It’s ideal for repairing chips, closing gaps, covering stains, and improving shape, all without removing healthy tooth structure.
A fresh look opens doors! Don’t feel stuck in a smile that does holds you back.
A board-certified prosthodontist with an artistic eye, Dr. Gatta delivers results that look completely natural. His precision color matching, sculpting, and polishing ensure each restoration disappears into your smile.
Your treatment begins with a consultation where Dr. Gatta examines your teeth, discusses your goals, and confirms whether bonding is right for you. The procedure is gentle and typically requires no drilling or removal of enamel. After lightly preparing the tooth surface, Dr. Gatta layers and sculpts a tooth-colored resin to match your natural smile. Each layer is hardened with a special light, then shaped and polished to perfection. The entire process usually takes less than an hour per tooth, and you’ll leave with a visibly improved smile the same day.

Cosmetic bonding is an excellent choice for patients seeking quick, affordable improvements for minor chips, gaps, or discoloration. Veneers, on the other hand, are ideal for those looking for a complete smile makeover with the most durable, stain-resistant results. During your consultation, Dr. Gatta will help you decide which option best fits your goals and lifestyle.
