I haven’t been to the dentist in over 10 years. Due to the fear of pain, and my gagging reflex is horrible! I came here to see Dr.Nikol. She and her wonderful staff made me feel really comfortable! If I was having a problem they would step back and let me get my bearings back and my thoughts outta my head! And April the support pup will also help you relax. She does a great job! I’ll tell you what, I won’t be afraid to come back here in the future! Oh and my bad gagging didn’t happen! Woohoo! See you next time Greenwood Dental thank you for an amazing experience!!

Very nice office! It was easy to make an appointment. It was for my 7 year old grandaughter. We got there a bit early (by 15 min or so) and was taken in early! Very nice hydgienist took great care of my grandaughter. She made her feel super comfortable (the child is usually very squirmy) but she was perfectly still even for the x-rays! Dr. Kurkiak was also very nice and great with the little one! Quickly found common ground with 7 year old. Everything went smoothly!

We had such a wonderful experience at this dental office! From the very beginning, the scheduling process was easy, organized, and welcoming. The entire staff creates such a warm, family-friendly atmosphere that immediately made us feel comfortable. I especially appreciated how patient and kind they were with my kiddos during their cleanings. The team made sure they felt relaxed and comfortable the whole time, which means so much as a parent. My husband and I also had very thorough exams, and the dentist took the time to explain everything clearly and create a game plan for our next steps instead of making us feel rushed. You can truly tell they care about their patients and want the best for your family’s dental health. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, professional, and trustworthy dental office!

I can’t say enough good things about Greenwood Dental Care! From the moment you walk in until the moment you leave, every member of the staff is incredibly kind, welcoming, and professional. I have a lot of dental anxiety, but they’ve made every visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible. The entire process has been painless, and I truly appreciate the care and compassion they show their patients. I highly recommend this office to anyone, especially if you’re nervous about going to the dentist!

Jessica Mitchener

What a wonderful experience and an amazingly clean and modern facility. I dread going to the dentist, but this was by far the best experience I’ve ever had. My husband and I recently moved to the area and we really lucked out by having found Greenwood Dental. Dr. Nikol was very thorough and detailed about the condition my teeth were in and what the game plan was moving forward. Happy to have found such a great dentist in the area!

Danielle C.

I had a great experience! The staff was friendly and welcoming, and Dr. Kurziak was very gentle and caring. They made me feel comfortable throughout my visit. I highly recommend this office!

Amy Garza

Common Questions About Composite Bonding

What issues can composite bonding fix?

Composite bonding can improve the appearance of chipped, cracked, discolored, or uneven teeth. It is also used to close small gaps and reshape teeth for a more balanced look. This treatment works best for minor cosmetic concerns. It's a conservative alternative to more involved procedures.

How long does composite bonding last?

Composite bonding can last several years with proper care. You can extend its lifespan by maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding habits like biting hard objects. Regular dental visits allow your dentist to monitor the bonding and make adjustments if needed.

Does composite bonding look realistic?

Yes, composite bonding will match the color and texture of your teeth. Your dentist carefully selects the shade and shapes the material to blend with your smile. The final result is polished to create a smooth, natural appearance. Most people will not notice the bonding, which helps you feel confident in your appearance.

Is composite bonding painful?

Usually, bonding requires no anesthesia and is completely comfortable from start to finish. The tooth is lightly etched with a mild conditioning gel to help the resin adhere. However, no healthy enamel is removed. If bonding is placed near the gumline or over a particularly sensitive area, a small amount of numbing may be used. Most patients describe the experience as one of the easiest dental procedures they've had.

How is composite bonding different from porcelain veneers?

Both veneers and bonding improve the appearance of teeth, but they differ in material, process, cost, and longevity. Porcelain veneers are thin shells bonded to the front of the tooth. We may need to remove a small amount of enamel to ensure the perfect fit. Composite bonding uses resin applied directly to the tooth in a single visit. It requires little to no enamel reduction. Overall, bonding is faster, more affordable, and easier to repair if it chips over time.

Can composite bonding fix multiple teeth at once?

Yes, you can choose to address several teeth in a single bonding appointment. That is one of the advantages of this treatment. Each tooth is worked on individually. The resin is applied and cured chairside. Your dentist can address multiple teeth in a single visit.

Is composite bonding affordable?

Composite bonding is one of the most affordable cosmetic dental treatments available. During your consultation, Dr. Kurziak discusses the full cost of your treatment upfront so there are no surprises. If cost has been a barrier to improving your smile, bonding is one of the most practical ways to make a meaningful, lasting change.

Who is a good candidate for composite bonding?

Most patients in reasonably good oral health are excellent candidates for composite bonding. The ideal candidate has one or more cosmetic concerns — a chip, stain, gap, or irregular shape — that they'd like addressed quickly and conservatively. Healthy gum tissue and a stable bite are important starting points.
