FAQs
What is composite bonding?
Composite bonding, also referred to as tooth bonding or dental bonding, is an effective solution for addressing minor imperfections such as damage or gaps in teeth. While this treatment is considered cosmetic and not typically covered by the NHS, many of our Bupa Dental Care practices offer composite bonding as a private service.
This procedure is commonly used to repair chips, close gaps, fix fractures, or address discoloration. A tooth-colored composite resin is applied to the tooth and carefully shaped to restore its natural appearance. The resin is color-matched to blend seamlessly with your teeth, giving a flawless, natural-looking result.
Benefits of composite bonding?
Quick and Efficient
Composite bonding is a speedy and efficient solution, often completed in a single visit to the dentist. It’s an excellent option for addressing minor cosmetic concerns quickly.
Once applied, the composite is hardened with a curing light, allowing the tooth to be fully functional and ready to bite comfortably by the end of your appointment.
Minimally Invasive
Composite bonding is a minimally invasive treatment. Unlike alternatives such as crowns or veneers, which require permanent removal of part of the tooth, bonding preserves the natural structure. Only the surface of the tooth is gently roughened to help the resin adhere, ensuring the integrity of your tooth remains intact.
Cost of composite bonding?
The cost of composite bonding in the UK varies depending on the extent of the treatment required. White Dental Practice Clifton charge £305 per tooth. Your dentist will provide an exact quote after completing a dental check up.
Can I do composite bonding with teeth whitening?
Composite bonding is also an effective option for addressing tooth discolouration and improving the appearance of fillings. It can be combined with teeth whitening treatments to help you achieve a more radiant, brighter smile.
Composite bonding aftercare?
Refrain from consuming tea, coffee, smoking, or foods that could cause staining for at least 48 hours after the procedure.
Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing your teeth regularly and visiting the hygienist for routine cleanings. This will help keep your composite bonding clean and free from stains.
Avoid habits like nail-biting or chewing on hard objects such as pen lids, as these can chip the bonding material. Since composite bonds are not as strong as natural teeth, it’s important to take extra care to prevent damage.
