Composite bonding

A non-invasive use of tooth-coloured filling material to lengthen or re-shape the front teeth.

Bonding uses a composite resin to close spaces, change the colour of the teeth, mask any discolorations, repair chips, change the size or shape of teeth, and give crooked or uneven teeth a straight-looking appearance.

Cosmetic bonding can be used on a single tooth or transform an entire smile. It is a simple technique that allows the white filling material to bond to the natural tooth, usually without the need to prepare/shape the tooth and is completed in one short visit. Another advantage of this technique is that an anaesthetic is not normally required, allowing you to smile with confidence, immediately. An artistic eye is required in order to produce natural seamless results and the dental team at Guildford Dental Centre have trained extensively in this procedure, transforming many smiles.

After cosmetic bonding, your new smile should last several years depending on your lifestyle. Smoking, drinking or using your teeth as tools, may reduce the life expectancy of the bonding and you may need to get your teeth polished once a year as the bonding material stains more readily than natural teeth.

I visited Guildford Dental Centre because I was experiencing tooth pain, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Dr Jan was incredibly welcoming, professional, and reassuring throughout both the check-up and the treatment I needed. The reception team were also warm, friendly, and very helpful from the moment I arrived. I’ve already recommended Guildford Dental Centre to friends and family locally, and I’ll definitely continue using them for future check-ups. Thank you again for such excellent care
