Composite Bonding

Achieve a naturally beautiful smile with our minimally invasive dental bonding treatment. 

Enhance your smile with confidence

Dental bonding is a versatile and affordable cosmetic procedure that can transform your smile. At 38 Devonshire Street, our skilled dentists use tooth-coloured composite resin to correct imperfections and enhance the appearance of your teeth. This minimally invasive treatment can be completed in a single visit, making it a convenient option for achieving a natural-looking and very attractive smile.

What can Dental Bonding achieve?

  • Chipped or cracked teeth: Repair minor chips and cracks, restoring the strength and integrity of your teeth.
  • Gaps between teeth: Close unsightly gaps and spaces, creating a more uniform and harmonious smile.
  • Discoloured teeth: Conceal stains and discolouration, give your teeth a brighter, whiter appearance.
  • Misshapen teeth: Reshape teeth that are too short, too long, or uneven, improving the overall symmetry of your smile.
  • Small cavities: Fill small cavities with tooth-coloured composite resin, preserving healthy tooth structure.

The Benefits

  • Natural-looking results: The composite resin is carefully matched to the colour of your natural teeth, creating a seamless and undetectable restoration.
  • Minimally invasive procedure: Dental bonding typically requires little to no removal of tooth enamel, preserving the health and integrity of your teeth.
  • Quick and convenient: In most cases, dental bonding can be completed in a single appointment, making it a time-saving option.
  • Cost-effective: Compared to other cosmetic procedures, this treatment is a more affordable way to enhance your smile.
  • Long-lasting results: With proper care and maintenance, dental bonding can last for several years.

The Dental Bonding process

  • Consultation: We’ll discuss your smile goals and assess your suitability for dental bonding.
  • Shade matching: We’ll carefully select a composite resin that matches the colour of your natural teeth.
  • Preparation: The tooth surface is lightly air-abraded and then etched to create a strong bond with the composite resin.
  • Bonding: The composite resin is applied and sculpted to the desired shape.
  • Curing: A special blue light is used to harden the composite resin.
  • Polishing: The bonded area is polished to a smooth and natural-looking finish.

Aftercare

  • Maintain good oral hygiene: Brush and floss regularly to keep your bonded teeth clean and healthy.
  • Avoid hard or sticky foods: These can damage or dislodge the bonding material.
  • Schedule regular check-ups: We’ll monitor the condition of your bonding and make any necessary adjustments.

FAQ’s

What dental issues can composite bonding address?

Composite bonding is a versatile solution for various cosmetic and minor restorative needs. It can repair chipped or cracked teeth, close gaps between teeth, conceal stains and discolouration, reshape misshapen teeth, and even fill small cavities. Essentially, it enhances the appearance and function of teeth with minor imperfections.

How is the composite bonding procedure performed?

The process begins with a consultation to discuss your goals and shade matching to select a resin that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. The tooth surface is lightly air-abraded and etched to prepare it for bonding. The composite resin is then applied and sculpted to the desired shape. A special curing light hardens the resin, and finally, the bonded area is polished for a smooth, natural-looking finish. The procedure is typically completed in a single visit.

What are the benefits of choosing composite bonding?

Composite bonding offers several advantages, including natural-looking results due to the resin's ability to match your tooth colour. It's minimally invasive, often requiring little to no enamel removal. It's a quick and convenient procedure, typically completed in one appointment, and it's a cost-effective way to enhance your smile compared to other cosmetic options. With proper care, the results can last for several years.

How long does composite bonding last?

With good maintenance, composite bonding lasts for 5-7 years before it needs some revision. It is considered a medium term solution to your cosmetic dental needs. Because it requires little or no tooth preparation, it can easily be refreshed when needed without damage to the teeth.

How do I care for my teeth after composite bonding?

Maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial. Brush and floss regularly to keep your bonded teeth clean and healthy. Avoid hard or sticky foods that could damage or dislodge the bonding material. Schedule regular check-ups with us so we can monitor the condition of your bonding and make any necessary adjustments. Following these guidelines will help ensure the longevity and appearance of your composite bonding.

I can't recommend Gaynor, Charlotte, Ruby and colleagues too highly. Extremely professional, friendly and client-oriented. So say nothing of the (huge) amount of investment they have ploughed into hygiene in general and anti-covid protection in particular. My favourite dental practice ever.

I cannot speak highly enough of my recent experience at this Practice. I'm extremely nervous of visiting the dentist and had neglected visiting for a good few year. My first visit to Charlotte was fantastic, I was put completely at ease and she and Faiza expertly explained what was being done and when which really helped. This experience has given me the confidence to push ahead with dental work for the future! I highly recommend if you are nervous or scared of the dentist, there is no need to be when visiting these guys!

Best dental cleaning experience I have ever had. The mouth piece made of soft material the hygienist uses allows you to keep your mouth opened without too much stretch . The machine with warm water is perfect for sensitive teeth and the die to detect scale is genius.I recommend very highly!
