Composite Bonding Docklands

Address the small imperfections in your smile with composite bonding in Docklands.

Introduction to Composite Bonding

This modern and innovative treatment plan is fast becoming the most in-demand treatment for Docklands patients. It is a cosmetic procedure that will help to conceal any imperfections in your smile, so it’s great for things like small gaps, chips, cracks, misaligned teeth, thinning enamel, dental staining and asymmetry. We use the same resin material used for white fillings and carefully colour match this to your teeth. The soft resin is applied directly to the tooth and then shaped to achieve the desired outcome. We then set it with UV light to create a strong restoration that looks and feels like a natural tooth. This treatment is unique as it allows us to address minor imperfections that can have a huge impact on your smile and your confidence.

Benefits of Composite Bonding

This treatment is so popular as it offers a fast and effective alternative to treatments such as veneers or crowns. You don’t have to visit the dentist multiple times, as composite bonding can be completed in one straightforward and pain-free visit. It’s also highly cost-effective, as the materials used are much cheaper than porcelain restorations, and they don’t have to be created in a lab. We can design your smile in real time, using the rest of your teeth and your facial proportions as a guide. There is no downtime after treatment, and no risk of increased sensitivity. Rather than breaking off, the resin will wear down gradually over time, usually lasting for around 5 years before it needs to be replaced.

Differences Between Composite Bonding And Composite Veneers

Another option available for patients looking for smile upgrades on a budget would be composite veneers. With composite bonding, we usually apply the material to a single tooth, but with composite veneers we would tackle all of the top teeth that are visible when you smile to achieve a complete smile makeover. We can achieve this by sculpting each tooth individually, or we can use a custom mould and inject the resin into this to create your dream smile. This is far more cost-effective than treatments such as porcelain veneers, but the results won’t last for as long. Porcelain restorations can typically last around 12-15 years, while composite veneers will last for around 5 years.
