Composite Bonding

 

Composite bonding is a popular cosmetic dental procedure intended to improve the form, colour, and general appearance of a patient’s teeth. It utilises the same resin material as white fillings and is typically applied to the front teeth, or those that are visible when you smile.

 

Composite bonding can be used to conceal minor flaws in the front teeth, close small gaps, and conceal minor tooth rotations without causing any damage to your teeth, as a result of significant advancements in bonded dental materials over the past decade.

 

Composite bonding is a painless procedure that, in most circumstances, takes only one office visit. Your dentist will be able to select a shade of resin that closely matches the colour of your teeth, resulting in a completely natural appearance.

 

Here is how the treatments works:

 

Your dentist chooses a resin hue that corresponds to the natural colour of your teeth.

 

The resin is gently put to your teeth without requiring any preparation or harm.

 

Your dentist then meticulously moulds and polishes the resin to conceal any defects, resulting in a completely natural appearance.

 

After the resin has been moulded, it is rapidly solidified with the aid of a special light.

 

Although composite bonding does not last as long as veneers, many patients find it to be a cost-effective alternative. It can also be repeated without causing any damage to the teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I care for my bonded teeth?

The composite material is almost as strong as your natural teeth. Restorations, if cared for, can last for several years but it does depend on how well they are looked after. At Smile Hub, our dentists recommend that any type of dental work requires excellent oral hygiene to maintain the best results. Biting your fingernails or biting into very hard or sticky food can chip the composite bonding, the same way that it can chip your natural teeth.

Do I need composite bonding?

At Smile Hub, you can organise a consultation with one of our experienced dentists in which they will be able to determine if your dental problems or insecurities can be solved using composite bonding. One of our dentists will do a full examination of the teeth which may involve x – rays and an evaluation of the gum health and overall teeth health. Then during this consultation one of our expert dentists will be able to advise you if you are a suitable candidate for composite bonding to create that perfect smile. Composite bonding is often suitable for those who wish to fix problems such as decayed teeth, cracked or chipped teeth, gaps, tooth discolouration and much more. If you have teeth that are severely damaged, our dentists may advise you to consider other restorative or cosmetic procedures that may be better in suiting your long – term goals.
