Composite Bonding Chipping Norton

Address the minor imperfections to achieve incredible results with composite bonding.

Introduction to Composite Bonding

Composite bonding is one of the most innovative treatments available for those looking for a budget solution to small imperfections. You no longer have to spend a lot of money for porcelain crowns or veneers when you can simply address small imperfections using composite resin. This is the same material used for white fillings, but we can apply it to the front of the teeth to achieve the same outcome as veneers or crowns. This means we can address small imperfections, such as small gaps, chips, cracks, discolouration, thinning enamel and uneven tooth edges.

We commonly recommend this alongside other cosmetic treatments such as orthodontics as it allows us to put the finishing touches on your smile to ensure complete perfection. And the best part? Composite bonding can be completed in just one visit with no discomfort, no impact to the tooth enamel and no downtime.

Benefits of Composite Bonding

The speed of the treatment is often the main reason that patients want to explore this option. It’s also a highly versatile treatment, which means we can achieve lots of changes with a single treatment plan. It’s also highly cost effective, as the material is cheap and readily available. We also don’t need to involve an external lab, which also helps to keep costs down.

The composite resin is applied directly to the teeth and then shaped as required. We can also colour match to the surrounding teeth, ensuring that your smile looks brilliant and white. The material is hardened using UV light and then polished to create a smooth and natural finish. Rather than breaking off, the material wears down gradually and will typically last for 5 years. After this point, you can renew the treatment or explore more permanent treatment options such as veneers.

Differences Between Composite Bonding And Composite Veneers

When researching your options, you might come across a treatment called composite veneers. The main difference between bonding and veneers is the number of teeth treated. We usually say composite bonding when we are treating a single tooth, and composite veneers when we are treating the whole smile.

Composite veneers offer a cheaper alternative to porcelain veneers. We can apply the resin to the front teeth that are visible when you smile to create a dramatic smile makeover. This could help to straighten, brighten and refine your smile, allowing you to walk out of the practice on the same day with a stunning new smile. If you’re not sure which treatment is right for you, book and appointment with our cosmetic dental team.
