What is Composite Bonding?
Composite bonding has really grown in popularity as a cosmetic dental treatment in the last few years and is considered a non-invasive way to improve the appearance of teeth. Cosmetic bonding is less expensive than crowns or veneers and doesn’t involve tooth preparation and is ideal for people with minor chips, small gaps between the teeth, staining and discoloration, slight crookedness and misshapen teeth.
At Summertown Dental & Implants in Oxford, our dentists use the tooth-coloured composites to fill cavities, repair chips or cracks, close gaps between your teeth and build up the worn-down edges of teeth.
What are the benefits of Composite Bonding?
Composite materials are directly applied and sculpted to the surfaces of teeth that show most prominently when you smile so we recommend composite bonding for minimally invasive smile makeovers. While dentists call them direct composite veneers, many people just refer to them generically as “bonding”.
