Cosmetic Bonding

Cosmetic bonding can enhance your smile by improving fractured, decayed or discoloured teeth.

This teeth-restorative method is quick enough to be completed within a single appointment, and some patients may not even require an anaesthetic as it is less invasive than other treatments. Cosmetic bonding is made of resin that can easily be matched to the colour of your natural teeth, providing you with an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Additionally, cosmetic bonding may also be combined with other methods to improve the state of your teeth (for example, teeth whitening).

How is cosmetic bonding done?

Typically, cosmetic bonding requires no anaesthetic and is considered to be a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment. During the procedure, your dedicated dentist will use a composite resin to match and bond with your natural tooth to repair it and improve its appearance.

The application of the product may be a quick procedure that can be completed within one visit to our clinic. It involves coating the treated tooth with resin and curing it with UV light. Afterwards, your dentist shapes and polishes the hardened product until it feels, looks and functions just like your natural teeth.
