The procedure can be used to address a variety of dental issues, including:

• Chipped or Cracked Teeth: Repair minor damage and restore the structural integrity of your teeth, preventing further wear.
• Gaps Between Teeth: Close small gaps for a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing smile.
• White spot removal: disguise white spots.
• Misshapen Teeth: Reshape teeth to improve alignment and symmetry.
• Cavities and Decay: Fill cavities with a material that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Advantages of Composite Bonding

• Minimally Invasive: Requires little to no removal of enamel.
• Convenient with Same-Day Results : Typically completed in a single visit.
• Great Value Option: Cost effective option to improve the shape/size of your teeth and are not wishing to consider porcelain veneers
• Natural Appearance: Composite material is precisely colour-matched for a seamless look.

What is the difference between Composite Veneers and Edge Bonding?

While both Composite veneers and Composite Edge bonding are popular cosmetic dental treatments, your Dentist, after a comprehensive examination, will be able to advise what treatment is best for you. Edge Bonding is an addition to the edges of the teeth whereas a Composite Veneer will be a layer of composite covering the whole surface of the tooth. Both are non-invasive and placed in a single visit by one of our trained clinicians!

Caring for Your Bonded Teeth

Composite bonding is durable and can last for a long time with proper and regular care, as with all dentistry it is essential to maintain regular recalls to maintain its appearance and longevity.

Here are some tips to keep your bonded teeth looking their best!

• Good Oral Hygiene: regular visits to the hygienist every 6 months are essential for continuous gum maintenance and hygiene. At these visits the hygienists can remove stains, clean around the composites and even polish them up to ensure they stay fresh.
• Limit Staining Foods and Drinks: limit consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco products as composites will stain (just like natural teeth).
• Regular Dental Check-Ups: Visit your dentist for routine checks and examinations to monitor the condition of your bonded teeth.
