Composite bonding is a cosmetic dental treatment that uses thin layers of tooth-coloured composite resin to improve the appearance of your teeth. The composite resin is placed over the surface of the tooth to fill cracks, repair broken teeth, fill gaps and improve discoloured teeth. Best of all, the entire process can often be completed in just one visit.
Benefits of composite bonding
Minimal Invasiveness
The procedure requires little to no removal of tooth enamel, preserving more of your natural tooth structure.
Quick Process
Most bonding treatments can be completed in a single visit.
Cost-Effective
It is one of the most affordable cosmetic dental procedures available.
Versatility
Bonding can correct discolouration, chips, cracks and gaps between teeth, and can make teeth look longer or change their overall shape.
The procedure
The composite bonding procedure is straightforward and typically requires no anaesthesia. Here is what you can expect:
Shade Selection
Your dentist selects a composite resin colour that closely matches your natural teeth.
Tooth Preparation
The surface of the tooth is slightly roughened, and a conditioning liquid is applied to help the bonding material adhere.
Application
The composite resin is then applied, moulded and smoothed to achieve the desired shape.
Curing
An ultraviolet light or laser hardens the material.
Polishing
Finally, your dentist will trim and polish the composite to match the sheen of the rest of the tooth surface.
Recovery and care
Recovery from composite bonding is immediate, allowing you to return to your daily activities without any downtime. The bonded teeth do not require special care beyond good oral hygiene practices, including brushing twice a day, flossing daily and regular dental check-ups.
