Composite Bonding

Composite Bonding is a cosmetic dental procedure whereby tooth-coloured composite resin is applied to the teeth to improve your teeth’s appearance as desired.

Composite Bonding is a fast and effective way of giving you the smile you desire in a single visit. In most cases, there is no need to remove any part of your natural tooth structure and does not require the use of injections or moulds being taken.

I recently had composite bonding done on my front teeth, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! It only took about an hour for my dentist to shape and bond the composite resin to my teeth.

Louise

I am so impressed with this place I had to write a review. I sent a message via Facebook on a Sunday morning after I chipped my tooth and received reassuring messages back immediately. I booked an appointment for the next day and Dr Fiona was so lovely and really put me at ease. A complete breath of fresh air after my previous dentists. Excellent service. Highly recommend.

Cosmetic bonding is useful for closing gaps between teeth, altering contours, and covering or masking stained teeth caused by fluorosis or congenital defects.

The treatment itself is straightforward and comfortable. After an initial consultation with your dentist, you will have discussed your smile goals and selected your desired tooth shade.

The natural tooth surface is prepared and roughened with a mild chemical agent, followed by a bonding agent. Your dentist will then apply the composite and deftly sculpt the material to an aesthetically pleasing shape, set with blue light, and polished to a brilliant finish. You’re then ready to walk out the door with a brand new beautiful smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is composite bonding?

Composite bonding, also known as dental bonding or teeth bonding, is a dental procedure that is designed to enhance your smile and, in turn, boost your confidence.

It can be used to repair various cosmetic dental concerns, including chipping, cracking, misalignment or discolouration of the teeth.

The procedure involves applying tooth-coloured resin to the tooth to alter its size, colour or shape.

How Long Does Composite Bonding Last?

Bonding on the front teeth can last between 4 and 8 years, depending on the location of the bonded tooth, your bite, and your eating habits. It’s usually better to avoid biting directly into your food, particularly hard food items and objects that can compromise the structure of the dental bonding.

How much does Composite Bonding Cost?

The average cost of dental bonding ranges between £245 to £300 per tooth. Edge bonding costs less than full coverage bonding and is usually carried out for chipped edges. In some cases it may cost less depending on the presentation of the tooth.

How To Care For Composite Bonding?

While it’s durable and can stay in good shape for a while if you take care of it, it might not last as long as other treatments like porcelain veneers. You might need touch-ups or replacements down the road.

Another thing to think about is that composite bonding can stain over time. Even though it’s resistant to stains, it’s not completely immune, and things like smoking or eating and drinking dark – coloured foods can affect how it looks.

Can lower teeth be treated using composite bonding?

Composite bonding is normally carried out on upper teeth. However, it may be possible to treat lower teeth in some circumstances. Your dentist will assess whether there is enough space for the process to be completed. They will also consider your bite when determining if treatment of your lower teeth is appropriate.

Does composite bonding damage teeth?

Composite bonding is non-invasive dental treatment. Unlike veneers or crowns, the composite resin moulds to fit so that it won’t cause damage to teeth. There is no need to remove any of your natural enamel as done with veneers or grind your teeth down as done with crowns.

How To Maintain The Result After The Bonding Procedure?

● Brush and floss daily for effective plaque control.
● Use a Non-Abrasive Toothpaste (whitening toothpastes can be very abrasive for the teeth so avoid them)
● Avoid foods and drinks that can stain, like, coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco can stain your bonding.
● Quit smoking
● Avoid chewing on hard food items and objects.
● Wear a protective mouth guard provided by the dentist, This keeps your bonding safe from damage caused by grinding or accidents.
● Visit your dentist regularly for checkups and composite polish, They can fix any issues early and make sure your bonding lasts.
