Composite bonding is a purely additive procedure in which we can add length and volume to your teeth to create the desired aesthetic result.

If your teeth are not well aligned, then orthodontic treatment (such as Invisalign) would be recommended to move your teeth into a better position prior to composite bonding.If there are very minor overlaps/crowded teeth then sometimes we can do composite bonding alone and mask overlaps.

Composite is minimally invasive, meaning that no damage/drilling is carried out to your teeth. However, it is not fully reversible as the composite is glued onto the teeth with bond so if the composite was removed in the future the exact surface texture you had before on your teeth would not be able to be replaced like for like. It is however the most minimally invasive option in dentistry to produce a cosmetic change.

Composite veneers can be used to lighten the shade of your teeth as they cover the entire front surface of your teeth. This is a good option for patients that have internal staining of their teeth or surface anomalies such as cracks which would like to be covered. Composite edge bonding is matched to your tooth shade, therefore if you would like a brighter end result I would recommend professional tooth whitening to lighten your teeth beforehand.
