Composite Bonding
Enhance your smile with our composite bonding services, an effective solution for minor dental imperfections. Andrew Thomas utilises his experience and technical skill to deliver natural-looking results.
What is composite bonding?
Composite bonding is a cosmetic dental procedure that involves applying a tooth-coloured composite resin material to the teeth to improve their appearance. It is commonly used to fix minor dental imperfections such as chipped or discolored teeth, gaps between teeth, and slightly misaligned teeth. The composite material is carefully sculpted and bonded to the teeth, resulting in a natural-looking and aesthetically pleasing smile.
Composite bonding is a minimally invasive procedure that can be completed in just one visit to the dentist. The process begins with the dentist preparing the teeth by roughening the surface and applying a conditioning liquid. Then, the composite resin material is carefully applied, shaped, and moulded to achieve the desired results. Finally, a special light is used to harden the resin, and the teeth are polished for a smooth and seamless finish.
What are the benefits of composite bonding?
Composite bonding offers several benefits that make it a popular choice for enhancing smiles:
- Natural-looking results: The composite resin material used in bonding can be matched to the color of your natural teeth, resulting in a seamless and natural-looking smile.
- Minimally invasive: Unlike some other cosmetic dental procedures, composite bonding is a minimally invasive treatment that requires little to no tooth preparation. This means that your natural tooth structure is preserved.
- Quick and convenient: Composite bonding can usually be completed in just one visit to the dentist, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
- Versatile: Composite bonding can address a variety of dental imperfections, including chips, cracks, gaps, and discoloration. It can also be used to reshape teeth and improve their overall appearance.
- Durable: With proper care, composite bonding can last for several years, providing long-lasting results.
