Book an appointment today with our practice specialist to discover if composite bonding is right for you.

What is Composite Bonding?

Composite bonding is a form of cosmetic dentistry designed to restore and cover imperfections in your smile. If you have chipped or fractured teeth, composite bonding is a much quicker fix than having veneers or crowns fitted. 

The composite bonding procedure can be performed in one appointment, and you will not require any local anaesthetic or sedation. With no filing or drilling needed, composite bonding is an effective way to transform your smile without any pain and discomfort. 

A white, tasteless resin is applied to the top of the tooth, covering any damage and improving the size and shape of your teeth. As well as restoring chipped or fractured teeth, composite bonding can also be used to fill in small gaps between the teeth and create a whiter smile.

Boost Your Confidence

We understand that chipped, discoloured or misshapen teeth can impact your self confidence, but composite bonding can help you fall in love with your smile again. Our expert specialist will apply a white resin to the top of your tooth, rebuilding any damage and covering the discoloured tooth surface.

4 Steps To a New Smile

A smile transformation is simple with composite bonding. At Forestside, we follow a four step process, and it all begins with you filling in our online contact form or calling our friendly team on 023 8087 9088. 

At your first consultation, our in-house specialist will take a 3D scan of your teeth and determine whether you are a good candidate for composite bonding. If all looks good, we will create a bespoke treatment plan for your needs, set out your appointments and provide a quote for the procedure. 

On the day of your procedure, our supportive staff will help you to feel as comfortable and at ease as possible. There will be no drilling or filing down of the teeth during the procedure, and local anaesthetic is not needed. Your dentist will apply a layer of tasteless, white resin to the top of your tooth, improving both the shape of your teeth and the brightness of your smile. 

The Forestside dentists endeavour to provide exceptional service to all customers, and we will make sure you know exactly how to care for your teeth after having a composite bonding treatment.

Composite Bonding vs Veneers

Unlike veneers, composite bonding is not a permanent solution to tooth damage, as the resin used to cover the natural tooth is not as strong as the porcelain used for veneers. Repeat procedures will be required much sooner if you choose composite bonding - approximately 3 times more quickly than veneers. 

There are many reasons to choose composite bonding over veneers. For example, there is no filing or drilling needed with composite bonding. This means the procedure can be reversed if needed. Also, as the work is less invasive, the procedure can be performed during a single appointment, and the process is completely pain and hassle free. 

If you can’t decide if composite bonding is the best cosmetic dental service for you, don’t hesitate to contact Forestside for an expert opinion.
