Our friendly dental team will begin by discussing your goals and desired cosmetic improvements. We’ll then thoroughly examine your teeth and gums to ensure composite bonding is the ideal solution for you. A crucial step for a seamless aesthetic result is color matching. We’ll carefully select a composite resin shade that perfectly complements your surrounding teeth, ensuring the bonding appears undetectable.
Minimal preparation might be required for minor chips or gaps. However, for deeper defects or misshapen teeth, a small amount of enamel might be gently removed to create a secure bonding surface. The tooth-colored resin is meticulously applied to the prepared tooth structure. We’ll then expertly sculpt the composite material to reshape or rebuild the tooth, creating a natural and aesthetically pleasing form.

1. How long does composite bonding last?
Composite bonding can last anywhere from 5 to 10 years or more, depending on the individual’s oral hygiene practices, bite forces, and habits like teeth grinding. Regular dental check-ups and maintenance can help extend the lifespan of the bonding.
2. Is composite bonding a painful procedure?
Generally, composite bonding is not a painful procedure. The tooth’s surface is roughened slightly to help the bonding material adhere better. However, no anesthesia is usually needed unless the bonding is being used to fill a cavity.
