About this treatment

Composite bonding is a quick, affordable cosmetic solution to even and straighten chipped, worn teeth. It is a minimally invasive and reversible treatment. there is usually no need for anaesthetic in most cases and results are immediate.

The procedure for cosmetic bonding is as follows

Tooth preparation:

The surface of the tooth is gently roughened and treated with a bonding agent—no drilling is needed in most cases.

Application of composite resin:

A shade-matched resin is sculpted directly onto the tooth to achieve the desired shape and look.

Hardening:

A special curing light is used to set the resin in place.

Finishing touches:

The material is polished to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

FAQs

How do I know if I am suitable for cosmetic bonding?

After a comprehensive evaluation with our dentists at Geans Clinic, we will ensure you have optimum gum health as composite bonding cannot be applied to teeth where there is bleeding and inflammation of the gums. Our dentists will also check your aims for treatment and ensure that composite bonding is right for you and if other alternatives such as braces or veneers may be more appropriate.

What are the downsides to cosmetic bonding?

Composite resin is not as strong as porcelain veneers or crowns, so they may chip if used to bite hard objects. Composite will also stain over time (especially with smoking, red wine, coffee, etc.)

How long does composite bonding last?

Typically lasts 3–7 years with good care, but can be repaired or re-serviced easily.

What Can Composite Bonding Fix?

Composite bonding can help repair chipped or worn teeth, minor cracks or fractures, gaps between teeth (diastemas), disguise mind discolouration or stains, address irregular or uneven teeth, address very slight misalignment (to a cosmetic degree) and help with tooth lengthening for a more balanced smile.

Patient Testimonials

We as a family have been coming to this dentist since it opened. I cannot stress how professional and caring they all are. I myself am a nervous patient and they put me at ease every single time. My son has unfortunately had to have root canal treatment not something anyone likes to endure but they were so careful, gentle and professional that my son wasn’t worried, scared or in pain (he fell asleep). I love this dentist, and recommend you to everyone. Sabrina is AMAZING, such a lovely person.

Anonymous patient

Thank you Sabrina for not hurting me and making me feel at ease! I’m scared to death of the dentist!

Both my wife and I have been in to see you for a few different treatments and on every single occasion we have left feeling happy and confident with the work you have done. My wife was extremely nervous about having any work done but after having the first consultation with you she came away and immediately felt relaxed about seeing you again to begin the treatments. After the experience we’ve had with you I no longer dread having to book in for a check up!

Will you please pass my thanks to Shrina Nathwani for her wonderful, professional care when I had a tooth extracted… I had been dreading the procedure but Shrina made me feel so relaxed and I must say I felt no discomfort. Shrina and the dental nurse who assisted her are a definite asset to your practice.

Anon 1, October 2018

I had excellent service from Shrina, not even any swelling or bleeding after the extraction last week. It’s just such a relief to have this sorted. Thank you for your prompt action.
