Composite Bonding
FEATURED ON:
What is composite bonding?
Composite bonding is a minimally invasive dental treatment which will redefine your smile.
A tooth-coloured composite resin material is seamlessly bonded and blended to your natural teeth to alter your tooth’s shape, shade, or colour for an aesthetically pleasing smile.
Am I a suitable candidate for composite bonding?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of composite bonding over porcelain veneers?
Veneers and crowns alike require the removal of healthy tooth tissue to make room for their addition. Veneers are also made in a laboratory, which adds time to the completion of your desired smile.
Composite bonding generally requires less tooth tissue removal. It is therefore preferred, and it can be completed in a single session for your convenience.
There are disadvantages, such as porcelain being a more robust material, so it is worth taking the time to talk to your dentist.
What should I expect during treatment?
Our aim is that all of our treatments are comfortable and calming in nature, and you can expect this at all times. Composite bonding is a prompt and pain-free treatment whereby we will use gentle chemical agents to clean and roughen the surface for a retentive bond.
We then add a bonding agent, which is cured with a blue light. The final stage is the resin material delicately and expertly sculpted to your desired shape and cured with the same blue light. We will finish your teeth with a mirror polish for a dazzling smile.
What is composite edge bonding?
