Introduction to composite bonding

Composite bonding treatment offers a cost-effective and fast alternative to treatments like veneers and crowns. Rather than creating a porcelain restoration in a lab, we can create the restoration directly on the teeth. We start by etching the tooth surface to make sure it bonds well with the composite resin. The soft and pliable resin is applied directly to the tooth and then shaped before it is cured with UV light. Once set, we can finalise the shape and polish the tooth. This treatment can be completed in just one visit to our practice near Oldbury.

What can composite bonding treat?

This treatment is ideal for addressing small imperfections that might be impacting your confidence. This could include issues like small gaps, chips and cracks. It can also be highly effective for tackling discolouration that doesn’t respond to teeth bleaching. And finally, we can also use this treatment to reshape your smile to make it more symmetrical and pleasing. It’s a perfect treatment to use alongside orthodontics to help put the finishing touches on your new smile.

Placing the Composite

Composite bonding is a treatment that is applied directly to your teeth. Your dentist will match the colour and then shape the composite. Once it is ready, UV light is used to harden the material.

Smile With Confidence

Composite bonding can deliver incredible results in just one visit. You will be ready to leave the dental practice and continue with your day with your confident new smile.

The best part about composite bonding is just how fast and effective this treatment is. We can complete this in just one visit with no downtime. A single tooth typically takes around 30 minutes to complete.

Composite resin will typically last for around 5 years, after which time it will start to wear away. Unlike restorations like veneers and crowns, composite bonding won’t break away from the teeth, but will instead wear down.

If you are thinking about whitening your teeth, we recommend doing this before composite bonding. This is because the bonding material will not respond to teeth bleaching chemicals, so your teeth could look different colours after treatment.

No, this treatment is not available as an NHS treatment, as it is purely cosmetic. NHS care will only cover medically necessary treatments that will protect your teeth from damage. Therefore composite bonding is only available as a private treatment.

If you are comparing composite bonding to alternative treatments like veneers and crowns, you should be aware that composite material is not as strong as porcelain restorations. It can also look slightly opaque, rather than glossy and translucent like porcelain. The material also does not last as long, usually around 5 years, compared with 12-15 years for porcelain.

Yes, your teeth can go back to normal after composite bonding, provided no enamel is removed from the tooth surface. Composite bonding should be a minimally invasive procedure, and the tooth surface should only be lightly etched.

Composite bonding starts at just £200, which is very cost effective compared to treatments like porcelain veneers.

You won’t be a good candidate for composite bonding if you have active decay, extensive enamel loss or if you grind your teeth at night.
