Composite Bonding

What is Composite Bonding?

Composite bonding uses tooth-colored resin applied directly to teeth to improve their appearance—repairing chips, closing gaps, covering discoloration, and reshaping teeth in a single visit without drilling or removing enamel, making it a minimally invasive, reversible smile enhancement.

What to Know Before You Go

💡 Pro Tip: When treating multiple teeth, do them together for consistent shade matching and color blending. Package pricing for 4-8 teeth offers significant savings compared to individual tooth pricing.

⚠️ Insider Note: Composite bonding can stain over time like natural teeth. Avoid excessive coffee, tea, red wine, and smoking to maintain your results longer—or plan for periodic polishing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does composite bonding last?

With proper care, composite bonding lasts 5-10 years before touch-ups or replacement may be needed. Avoid hard foods and maintain good oral hygiene.

Is composite bonding better than veneers?

Composite is more affordable, reversible, and preserves natural tooth structure. Porcelain veneers last longer (10-15 years) but require enamel removal.

Does the procedure hurt?

No anesthesia is usually needed. The process is virtually painless as no drilling is required—just gentle etching of the tooth surface.

Can I eat normally after?

Yes immediately, though avoid very hard foods like ice, hard candy, or biting into apples that could chip the bonding.

Will bonding look natural?

When performed by skilled dentists with quality materials, composite bonding looks completely natural and blends seamlessly with your teeth.

Can bonding be whitened?

No, composite doesn't respond to whitening treatments. Whiten your natural teeth first, then have bonding matched to that brighter shade.

What if bonding chips?

Repairs are easy and affordable. Your dentist can fix chips in a single short visit, often in 15-30 minutes.

How do I care for bonded teeth?

Normal brushing and flossing. Avoid biting hard objects, don't use teeth as tools, and attend regular dental check-ups every 6 months.
