How Long Does Dental Bonding Last?
Dental bonding or resin fillings last many years, influenced by lifestyle habits and the number of teeth treated. In this video, Dr. Amelia Aristodemo discusses the details.
The lifespan of dental bonding or resin fillings typically ranges from 10–15 years. However, this duration can be influenced by various factors, including your oral habits. For example, habits such as chewing on ice, biting your nails, or severe grinding can accelerate the wear and tear on the fillings, potentially leading to a shorter lifespan. Additionally, the number of teeth treated with bonding can also impact its longevity.
One of the advantages of resin fillings is that they require less removal of tooth structure compared to traditional silver fillings. In the event that the bonded tooth chips, repairs are usually straightforward.
