What is Composite Bonding?

Composite bonding uses composite resin carefully matched to your tooth shade to improve the appearance of your front teeth.

Composite bonding involves the following steps:

• Examination and Treatment Planning
  An in-depth examination of your teeth is performed to ensure your teeth are not suffering from decay or gum disease prior to treatment. We may take photographs to assess your smile fully and allow for a thorough treatment plan. We may also take records of the teeth to create a ‘trial smile’, which allows you to visualise the final result, as well as assess your bite and speech. You and your dentist will select a shade of composite resin that matches your natural tooth shade for treatment.
• Composite Placement
  Composite resin is carefully placed piece by piece to address the smile imperfections you wish to improve. A visible blue light is used to set the composite in place.
