Composite Bonding Ruislip
Enhance your smile in just one visit with innovative composite bonding in Ruislip.
Introduction to Composite Bonding
Until recently, composite resin was more widely used for white fillings, but we can now use this unique material for cosmetic treatment. It allows us to adjust the shape and colour of teeth, which makes it a perfect choice for minor cosmetic improvements.
We start by matching the resin to the colour of your surrounding teeth, so if you’re interested in teeth whitening, we recommend starting there. Next, we lightly etch the surface of the target tooth to make it more grippy. The resin is then applied directly to the surface of the tooth and shaped as required. UV light is used to harden the material before we polish it to perfection. This treatment is highly effective for addressing minor imperfections such as small gaps, chips, cracks, areas of discolouration, misaligned teeth and asymmetries.
Benefits of Composite Bonding
Patients are often drawn to this treatment as it offers dazzling results for a low investment. It’s also incredibly fast with no downtime after treatment, so you could effectively visit in your lunch break and return to the office with a dazzling smile upgrade.
The treatment is also minimally invasive, which means we won’t have to remove enamel to make space for the composite material. This can help to ensure that your teeth remain strong and healthy under the resin. Composite bonding typically lasts for around 5 years before it will start to wear away. At this point, you’ll have the option to renew your treatment or switch to something more permanent, like veneers or a crown.
Differences Between Composite Bonding And Composite Veneers
When we talk about composite bonding, the treatment is typically only applied to a single tooth to address an imperfection in your smile. For more extensive restorations, we can apply composite resin to all of the teeth that are visible when you smile. This delivers results similar to those seen with veneers, but for a much lower investment. This is a highly cost effective way to achieve a complete smile makeover, but it’s essential to keep in mind that composite bonding will still only last for around 5 years. If you’re looking for a more permanent smile upgrade, consider a treatment such as veneers.
