Composite Bonding

Composite Bonding

Composite Bonding in Westfield, London

Cosmetic bonding, also known as composite bonding or composite veneers, is an affordable alternative to porcelain veneers and some orthodontic treatments.

composite bondingWhat dental issues can composite bonding address?

Composite bonding is a versatile dental procedure that can effectively address various cosmetic issues. Some of the common dental issues that composite bonding can help with include:

  1. Chipped Teeth: If you have small chips or fractures in your teeth, composite bonding can repair the damage and restore the tooth’s appearance.
  2. Cracked Teeth: Composite bonding can be used to mend minor cracks in teeth, preventing further damage and improving the tooth’s structural integrity.
  3. Discoloured Teeth: Teeth that are discoloured or stained, either due to age, smoking, or dietary factors, can be rejuvenated with composite bonding. The resin can be matched to the natural tooth colour, providing a seamless and bright smile.
  4. Gaps Between Teeth: Bonding is an effective way to close small gaps or spaces between teeth, giving your smile a more uniform and even appearance.
  5. Misshapen Teeth: Teeth that are irregularly shaped or have uneven edges can be reshaped and contoured using composite bonding, creating a harmonious and balanced smile.
  6. Exposed Tooth Roots: Receding gums can lead to exposed tooth roots, which are sensitive and can affect your smile’s aesthetics. Composite bonding can cover and protect these exposed areas.
  7. Minor Tooth Alignment Issues: While not a substitute for orthodontic treatment, bonding can be used to improve the appearance of slightly misaligned teeth by reshaping and repositioning them.
  8. Cosmetic Fillings: Composite bonding can be used for cosmetic dental fillings in visible areas of the mouth, as the material can be matched to the natural tooth colour.

Advantages of Composite Bonding

Composite bonding offers several advantages, making it a popular choice for cosmetic dental procedures in Westfield, London:

  1. Minimally Invasive: As mentioned earlier, composite bonding is minimally invasive, preserving your natural tooth structure.
  2. Quick Results: The procedure is usually completed in a single visit, providing instant results.
  3. Versatility: Composite bonding can address various cosmetic issues, from small chips to discolored teeth.
  4. Natural Appearance: The resin material used in bonding is customizable to match the shade of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and natural appearance.
  5. Affordable: Compared to some other cosmetic dental treatments, composite bonding is a cost-effective option. Our price starts from £173.

Duration of Composite Bonding Treatment

In general, composite bonding is a relatively quick and straightforward cosmetic dental procedure, and most sessions can be completed in a single visit to the dentist’s office. Here’s a rough estimate of the time involved:

  1. Consultation: The process begins with an initial consultation with your dentist. During this appointment, your dentist will examine your teeth, discuss your goals and expectations, and determine if composite bonding is the right treatment for you. The consultation typically takes about 30 minutes to an hour.
  2. Bonding Procedure: The actual bonding procedure usually takes 30 minutes to two hours per tooth, depending on the complexity of the case. For minor repairs or touch-ups, it may take less time, while more extensive work may require additional time.
  3. Multiple Teeth: If you are getting composite bonding on multiple teeth, each tooth will be treated individually. The dentist will need extra time for each additional tooth.
  4. Final Touches: After the composite resin is applied and shaped, it needs to be hardened using a special curing light. This process takes just a few seconds per layer. Several layers may be applied to achieve the desired results.
  5. Polishing and Finishing: Once the resin has hardened, the dentist will polish and refine the bonded area, ensuring that it blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. This step can take about 15-30 minutes.
  6. Total Time: Taking all these factors into account, a composite bonding session for one tooth can typically be completed in about 1.5 to 2.5 hours, including preparation, bonding, curing, and finishing. If you are having multiple teeth treated, the total time will be longer.

Composite bonding offers immediate results, making it a convenient choice for individuals seeking quick cosmetic improvements to their smiles. There is little to no downtime or recovery period, so you can resume your daily activities right after the procedure.

Our dentist will provide you with a more accurate estimate of the treatment time during your consultation, as it can vary based on your specific needs and goals.

I recently completed by Invisalign treatment with Dr Tehseen Khan and had a fantastic experience with her and the team. I had my first consultation with her in 2019 and only started Invisalign in 2022 yet she still gave me the same quote I received previously. Her professionalism throughout and willingness to answer all the questions I asked made my experience smooth and easy from day 1. My teeth look incredible only after 14 weeks and I cannot be happier with the results!

Dr Khan has deep knowlege and expertise in Invisalign and I felt very reassured throughout that I was having the best possible care. And I am very pleased with the resuts!

Oh, the relief! After a poor crown on a tooth six months ago at another dentist, Dr Vaishali Bhowmick replaced it last week. It changed from trapping food and dental floss to being smooth and the same gap as the other teeth. Thank you, Nigel

Dr Tehzeen Khan was excellent, I'm very happy with the treatment and results. Dr Khan was great, not only is she expert at delivering the various steps of the Invisalign treatment, but she is also very friendly, polite, and always explains everything she does, so you always know what is happening. The treatment was great, I'm very pleased with the results. And Dr Khan's schedule runs on time, I never had to wait long to be seen. I'd highly recommend her, and the rest of the team at DS Dental Studio.
