COMPOSITE BONDING OPTIONS

Find the right approach for your smile.

Composite bonding can be used in different ways. We will assess your smile properly and recommend the most appropriate route for the result you want.

Edge Bonding

Small, precise additions of composite can refine chipped, worn or uneven tooth edges while keeping the approach conservative.

For chips, worn edges and subtle contour changes

Composite bonding vs veneers

Both can change the shape, colour and overall appearance of a smile. The right option depends on your teeth, goals and clinical assessment.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the questions we get the most. Can’t find yours? Get in touch with the Fresh Dental team.

Composite bonding uses tooth-coloured resin to refine the shape, edges, proportions or surface of a tooth. It is carefully added and sculpted directly onto the tooth.

Composite bonding is generally considered a minimally invasive treatment. The exact approach depends on your teeth, your bite and the result you want, so we will assess suitability first.

Many bonding treatments can be completed in a single visit. More extensive smile makeovers may take longer depending on the number of teeth and the treatment plan.

Longevity varies with your bite, habits, maintenance and the amount of bonding used. We will explain realistic expectations and how to care for your bonding at your consultation.

In many cases composite can be repaired or refreshed directly, which is one of the reasons it can be a practical option for suitable patients.
