WHAT IS COMPOSITE BONDING
Composite bonding has evolved into a minimally invasive treatment that improves teeth’ shape and size without removing tooth structure. It can instantly transform teeth’ appearance, shape, shade, and colour on the same day, giving you a new smile.
Improving teeth’ cosmetic appearance can be achieved in various ways. Often, this can be achieved through orthodontics to improve the position of the teeth. However, teeth can vary in shape, size, and colour. This can be due to how they have developed, dental trauma, or general wear and tear throughout life, resulting in cracks, chips, and stains.
Composite is the tooth-coloured filling material, and bonding is the mechanical process by which the tooth colour filling material is attached to the teeth.
Composite bonding can improve your teeth’ shape, size, and colour. Some teeth are less aesthetically pleasing due to their development, dental trauma, or general wear and tear throughout life, which can result in cracks, chips, and stains.
Composite bonding can improve the appearance of these teeth by adding a tooth-coloured filling material to the teeth that are “bonded” to the natural tooth. The dentist hand-sculpts this material to the desired shape to create a natural-looking tooth. Various shades are available to ensure that the colour matches perfectly.
Combining this with a course of whitening, Invisalign clear braces can provide patients with a beautiful and natural-looking result.
