Composite Bonding Procedure

Step 1 – Consultation and Assessment

Your dentist assesses your teeth, gums and bite and discusses what you would like to change. They will explain whether composite bonding is suitable and what results can realistically be achieved.


Step 2 – Shade Selection

Your dentist selects a suitable composite shade to create a natural-looking result. If you are planning teeth whitening, they usually consider this before choosing the final shade.


Step 3 – Composite Bonding Appointment

Your teeth, getting the composite bonding will be cleaned and minimally prepared. We apply the composite directly to the tooth and mould it to the desired appearance. We use a special light to cure the composite so it hardens. Then the composite bonding will need ot be shaped and polished to create a  smooth and natural looking finish.


Step 4 – Review appointment for final adjustments 

You will need one or a few appointments for final adjustments. This is normal practice to help your composite bonding last.


Step 5 – Aftercare

You will receive advice on caring for your bonding. Good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups can help maintain your results. Composite can stain, chip or wear over time and may require polishing, repair or replacement.

Composite Bonding Pros and Cons

Pros

Composite edge bonding and composite bonding are among the most versatile treatments in cosmetic dentistry. They can improve the appearance and shape of your smile in just a few hours. 

Composite bonding provides teeth with :

  • Minimal alteration to natural tooth structure
  • Improves tooth shape, fixes small gaps and chips
  • Provides a natural-looking result
  • Composite can usually be repaired if damaged

Cons

Cosmetic bonding can produce excellent results, but it’s important to understand its limitations. Composite teeth can stain or chip over time, particularly with heavy biting forces or habits such as nail biting.

Patients also commonly ask about composite bonding after 5 years. How long it lasts depends on your bite, oral hygiene, lifestyle and how well the bonding is maintained and looked after.

Have you thought about?

To enhance your smile, composite bonding often complements other cosmetic treatments such as clear aligners, teeth straightening, braces if your case is complex and teeth whitening.

Can you have composite bonding with gum disease?

If you are asking what composite bonding means, it's also known as composite bonding veneers or resin bonding, and it's most popular for upper teeth. Unfortunately, not as common for bottom teeth. 

The time needed for composite bonding depends on how many teeth are treated and how much reshaping is required.

Composite teeth bonding is not a permanent treatment; it is subject to tear and wear and chips over time. Therefore, you need long-term maintenance and hygiene visits to ensure it lasts.

Composite bonding lasts for a maximum of five years, only with excellent oral hygiene, routine maintenance appointments, and wearing a protective shield every night. Follow your clinician's aftercare advice to avoid saying bonding ruined your teeth.
