Composite Bonding
Composite Bonding is a highly effective method of restoring lost tooth structure and enhancing the brightness of your smile. During this process, your dentist will gently apply a pigmented resin material to your teeth, which will brighten your smile and cover up any chips or cracks. There are numerous benefits to this technique, the main ones being that it is non-invasive and painless. It is often considered favourable as it involves no drilling, and therefore your natural tooth structure is not permanently altered. Moreover, no anaesthetic is required at any stage.
WHAT ARE THE OTHER ADVANTAGES OF COMPOSITE BONDING?
The process is swift, easy and effective and doesn’t use any metal brackets, meaning there is minimal discomfort. On top of restoring any chips or cracks in your teeth, it can also make your teeth whiter and brighter, making it an effective cosmetic procedure. If your teeth are slightly misaligned, but you’re not keen on the idea of orthodontics, your dentist can strategically place the resin to make your teeth appear more straight.
WHY CHOOSE COMPOSITE BONDING?
Composite Bonding is a quick and effective method of achieving that smile you’ve always wanted. It can be completed in just one session and is ideal for any minor issues you may be having with your teeth.
The resin used is particularly strong and is designed to withstand all the regular things your teeth should be able to endure.
The amount of time the bonding lasts can vary between people, but it is typical for it to endure around five or six years if good oral hygiene is maintained.
It is also an excellent way to restore broken or chipped teeth whilst looking natural. The resin will be placed in the chip to create the illusion of a full tooth. You’ll be smiling with confidence again in no time!
IS COMPOSITE BONDING SAFE FOR MY TEETH?
Your dentist will mould the composite resin to fit your natural teeth, meaning your tooth structure won’t be altered during the procedure. Unlike veneers, Composite Bonding does not require the removal of any of your natural enamel. There is also no need for drilling. This means the treatment is exceptionally safe and non-invasive.
