Benefits of composite bonding

What is Composite Bonding?
Composite bonding is a relatively new and advanced dental procedure that uses special composite materials bonded to the underlying tooth. This material is applied directly to the tooth, shaped to repair chips and cracks, fill gaps, conceal thinning enamel and cover discolouration. It can also be helpful in creating a straighter appearance for your teeth. This treatment is usually completed in a single visit with no recovery time needed — making it a popular choice for those looking for a quick transformation. Since the composite material wears down with time, the results typically last around five years.

Frequently Asked
Questions (FAQs)
Find the answers to the most commonly asked questions regarding composite bonding below:
How long does composite bonding last?
On average, composite bonding lasts for about five years. The longevity of the treatment depends on the placement of the material and how well you care for your teeth. You can extend its lifespan by avoiding habits like chewing ice or biting into hard foods. Over time, the material may wear down, at which point you can opt for another round of composite bonding or consider more permanent options like veneers.
What are some alternatives to composite bonding?
Veneers may be a popular alternative to composite bonding but they’re also more costly. Other options include orthodontics to straighten your teeth — or teeth whitening to enhance their brightness. Smilefast is a composite bonding technique that replicates the appearance of veneers.
Does composite bonding lead to teeth discolouration?
Composite bonding itself does not cause teeth discolouration. However, the composite material can become stained from certain foods and drinks. Maintaining good oral hygiene post-treatment is essential to prevent discolouration and keep your smile looking its best. You will also need to have regular visits to re polish the restorations.
Does composite bonding damage my teeth?
No, on the contrary, composite bonding can provide protection, especially if you’ve experienced enamel loss. The composite material helps shield your teeth from wear and tear, making them more resilient.
What Can Composite Bonding Do?
Composite bonding is a versatile treatment that can address various minor imperfections in your smile, including chips, cracks and small gaps. The material is applied directly to the tooth and sculpted to achieve the desired shape and contour, making it an adaptable solution for many dental issues.
Additionally, composite bonding can safeguard the underlying tooth structure, especially if the enamel has worn down and exposed the tooth. By applying the bonding material, you increase protection against further damage while also enhancing the tooth’s appearance.
