Benefits of Composite Bonding
Composite bonding is popular due to its versatility and minimally invasive nature. Benefits include:
Quick results: Often completed in a single visit
Minimally invasive: Little or no enamel removal required
Reversible in many cases: Bonding can be polished, reshaped, or removed
Cost-effective: Lower cost compared to porcelain veneers
Natural appearance: Resin is matched to your tooth colour
What to Expect After Your Consultation
Once you decide to proceed, the next steps usually involve:
Treatment Planning
Your dentist creates a plan specifying which teeth will be treated, the shade of resin, and the desired shape.
Composite Bonding Procedure
The resin is carefully applied, sculpted, and polished to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Aftercare Guidance
You’ll receive instructions on how to maintain your bonding and schedule follow-up visits for long-lasting results.
Composite Bonding vs Veneers
