Composite Bonding
We offer composite bonding—a swift and effective cosmetic dental procedure designed to improve the appearance of your teeth. This minimally invasive treatment involves applying a tooth-colored composite resin to the surface of your teeth, allowing us to address various aesthetic concerns such as chips, cracks, gaps, and discoloration. The resin is meticulously sculpted and polished to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, resulting in a harmonious and rejuvenated smile.
How It Works
The composite bonding process at New Road Dental begins with a thorough consultation to assess your dental health and discuss your desired outcomes. Once deemed suitable for the procedure, we select a composite resin shade that closely matches your natural teeth. The tooth surface is then gently etched to create a suitable bonding surface, and a conditioning liquid is applied to enhance adhesion. Subsequently, the putty-like resin is carefully applied, molded, and smoothed to the desired shape. A special curing light is used to harden the material, after which the bonded tooth is polished to achieve a natural-looking finish.
Benefits
Opting for composite bonding at New Road Dental offers several notable advantages:
• Quick Results: Achieve an improved smile in just one appointment.
• Minimally Invasive: Preserves most of your natural tooth structure without the need for extensive enamel removal.
• Cost-Effective: Provides an affordable alternative to more extensive cosmetic procedures like veneers or crowns.
• Versatile Application: Effectively addresses a range of cosmetic issues, including chips, cracks, gaps, and discoloration.
• Reversible Treatment: Since minimal tooth alteration is required, the procedure is generally reversible if future changes are desired.
