What is Composite Bonding?

Composite Bonding is a non-invasive, cosmetic dental treatment which is performed to close spaces, restore broken and chipped teeth and even the lengths. The beauty is that it is safe, pain free and there is little or no drilling, therefore most cases don’t need local anaesthetic. This means it is less invasive than other treatments performed, maintaining the health and structure of the natural teeth.

With Composite Bonding there is an option to have pre-bonding whitening, and this is achieved with a course of professional teeth whitening prior to the treatment, which enables the composite to be matched to your desired shade. Composite Bonding can be carried out to fix minor imperfections or create full Smile Makeovers.

The Composite Bonding Procedure at Newton Dental

Composite Bonding is where a thin layer of Composite, is bonded on to the teeth, to change the colour, shape, and size giving a more uniform appearance. The first stage is to clean and prepare the tooth to roughen the surface. A gel material is placed to help the composite microscopically adhere to the tooth, followed by a bonding material to help complement the preparation of the tooth. The composite material is placed and built up in several layers and meticulously sculpted, creating natural textures, and set with a curing light to harden the material. The treatment is completed with polishing for an exquisite finish.
