Natural looking results in one appointment.
Are you looking for a quick, non-damaging and painless smile makeover?
Composite bonding might be the ideal solution for you. We only use the latest equipment and the highest quality materials for durable and life-like results.
Composite bonding is a dental treatment where composite resin is applied to the tooth surface. The material comes in a variety of shades to match your natural teeth colour. The treatment is non-invasive and pain-free because your cosmetic dentist works only on the outer surfaces of your teeth. The procedure requires a detailed eye and craftsmanship to achieve an aesthetically pleasing smile that matches or improves your teeth shape, colour and symmetry.

What are the benefits of composite bonding?
Composite bonding can usually be carried out in just one visit to the dentist. It’s a fast and effective way to fix minor cosmetic issues.
Bonding is also a non-invasive procedure, with usually no drilling required, which allows the structure of the tooth remains intact. Composite bonding can make cosmetic improvements to your smile quickly, without causing further damage to your teeth.
Composite bonding can be a cheaper alternative to crowns or veneers. It’s also a less invasive process and can be completed in just one appointment. And with regular brushing and good oral hygiene, your composite bonds should last for years.
What are the alternatives to composite bonding?
The usual alternative options to composite bonding are:
Veneers – A veneer is a thin moulding custom-made from porcelain, which is bonded to the front surface of a tooth. They can also be used to cover gaps in teeth where orthodontic treatment may not be suitable.
Crowns – A crown is a tooth-shaped ‘cap’ that’s placed over the entire visible portion of your tooth. A crown will feel and function just like any of your other teeth. A crown is made to blend in with the appearance of your adjacent teeth.
Both of these alternatives cause some damage to teeth. Veneers are a popular option that can last for many years but as they are made from porcelain, the tooth has to be cut down to fit them, which causes some permanent damage. Similarly, for a crown to be fitted, a dentist has to remove some of the healthy part of your tooth.
Bonding is a quick, less expensive and non-invasive procedure, and it can be easily repaired if damaged or broken.
Talk to your dentist about your options and they will be able to advise you on whether composite bonding is the right treatment for you.
