What is composite bonding?

Composite bonding is used to reshape teeth, close small gaps and improve the aesthetics of your smile. It is an increasingly popular cosmetic dental treatment, with the results often compared to those achieved with veneers.

Composite resin material is made from a combination of plastic and glass. It can perfectly mimic tooth enamel and is carefully colour matched to the shade of your natural teeth for a seamless transformation.

What is involved with the treatment?

At your initial free consultation, we ask you what you want to change about your smile so we can tailor your treatment to achieve your dream results. We discuss your ideal tooth shape and shade, making sure the composite bonding will suit you and blend perfectly with your existing teeth.

We carefully clean your tooth to prepare it for treatment and create a rough surface for the composite to bond to effectively.

The composite material is applied in layers. It has a paste-like texture, allowing us to build the desired shape with precision and accuracy.

We harden the composite using a special light to ensure it sets in the correct place. The setting process is extremely quick, needing less than a minute. Your tooth immediately has full function, and you can eat on it comfortably straightaway.

We make any final amendments needed, including further shaping, and polish the tooth. It takes only 30-60 minutes in total to perform a stunning transformation, leaving you smiling with pride!

Cost-effective

Composite bonding is much more affordable than other cosmetic dentistry options, such as veneers, crowns or orthodontics.

Aesthetic

A very effective cosmetic treatment, composite bonding gives incredible aesthetically pleasing results.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is composite bonding permanent?

    While composite bonding has the potential to last a long time, it is not permanent. It can chip, break or become worn over time, but can be easily repaired in a quick single appointment. You can expect your composite bonding to last around 5-7 years.

  • Will the treatment be painful?

    Composite bonding is completely pain free. The composite is applied onto your tooth, with no invasive preparation, drilling or anaesthetic required.

  • Can composite bonding be reversed?

    Yes, as the composite is applied directly to your tooth and none of the natural structure needs to be removed, bonding is a reversible treatment. If you decide you no longer want it on your teeth, it can be easily removed.
