Composite Bonding - Dental Bonding
Experts in the Art of Creating Beautiful Smiles in Southall
Dental/Composite Bonding is another way your teeth can be repaired and your smile maximised by our cosmetic dentist in Southall. Composite bonding is a much more cost-effective, versatile, and less invasive alternative to porcelain veneers.
What Is Composite bonding?
Composite bonding and porcelain veneers serve the same purpose, but instead of a porcelain veneer being attached, the tooth is reconstructed through a build up of the composite bonding material.
Dental composite bonding can be used as a cosmetic solution to chipped teeth, gapped teeth and staining of both teeth and fillings. Unlike porcelain veneer placement, which can take more than two visits, composite resin bonding can be completed in one appointment. It is also much more flexible and versatile than porcelain because it can be repaired, altered or re-done at any time.
Is Composite Bonding Right For Me?
Composite bonding isn’t for everyone and the results are certainly not as natural looking as porcelain veneers. If your smile is crooked because of problems with your bite and jawline this treatment won’t correct it. The professionals here at Lady Margaret Road Dental Surgery in Southall will determine if composite bonding is a suitable treatment or if more in-depth work is needed. Composite bonding is mainly for people seeking a cosmetic solution for teeth that are otherwise healthy.
Is Composite Bonding Safe?
Composite bonding is a safe and effective technique that was developed more than 50 years ago, and has been widely available for over three decades.
Procedure
The treatment usually begins with our dentist removing some surface enamel from your teeth, allowing us to best shape the composite bonding to your tooth. After this we will apply the bonding agent, add the bonding resin, cure it with a special light and finish by polishing your teeth
