Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is composite bonding? A. Composite bonding is a cosmetic dental treatment that uses a tooth-coloured resin to improve the appearance of your teeth. It can fix chips, close gaps, smooth edges, and enhance the shape and colour of your smile.
Q. What problems can composite bonding fix? A. Bonding is ideal for repairing: - Chipped or cracked teeth - Small gaps between teeth - Uneven or worn edges - Minor discolouration
Q. Is composite bonding painful? A. No - the procedure is minimally invasive and usually pain-free. In most cases, no anaesthetic is needed because very little (if any) tooth enamel is removed.
Q. How long does composite bonding take? A. Composite bonding can often be completed in just one appointment, depending on how many teeth are being treated.
Q. How long does composite bonding last? A. With good care, composite bonding typically lasts 3–7 years. Its lifespan depends on factors such as your oral hygiene, diet, and habits like teeth grinding or nail-biting.
Q. How should I care for bonded teeth? A. Brush and floss daily, attend regular dental check-ups, and avoid biting hard foods or objects. Limiting tea, coffee, red wine, and smoking can help prevent staining.
Q. Can bonded teeth be whitened? A. No - composite resin does not whiten like natural enamel. If you’re considering teeth whitening, it’s best to do it before your bonding treatment so your dentist can match the colour perfectly.
Q. Is composite bonding reversible? A. Yes! Because it doesn’t require removing much enamel, the procedure is reversible and can be adjusted or replaced in the future if needed.
