What You Can Expect
Are you looking for a way to improve your smile in no time at all? Then composite bonding could be the perfect option for you! We are the providers of composite bonding Essex patients trust, and over the years, we have been able to get their smiles to where they want them to be fast. So let’s take a look at what competitive bonding is and the kind of issues that it is and isn’t a good choice for.
What is composite bonding?
First of all, what is composite bonding? It’s one of the most popular services that we offer here at Sharrow Dental. Our dentists use a tooth-coloured composite resin to shape, smooth and fill and all kinds of dental issues. You might also see it referred to as composite artistry, and we would say that that is a pretty accurate way to describe it!
Cracks and chips
If you have a small crack or chip in your tooth, then we will be able to get rid of it fast with composite bonding. Not only can this usually be done in just one visit, but filling the crack or chip can reduce the risk of it getting bigger and causing further issues with the tooth, such as discolouration.
Gaps between teeth
Do you have a small gap in your smile that you would love to fix, but don’t want to go through the long process of orthodontics? Well, if it really is that small, then composite bonding is a much better choice. We will use resin to build outwards from the sides of the teeth, narrowing the gap in no time.
Exposed roots
These not only look unsightly, but they can also lead to a lot of pain and sensitivity as well. If the exposed area is small and there is no other damage to your tooth, then you could be looking at a single visit to fill it.
Uneven teeth
Are some of your teeth just a little shorter or jagged than their neighbours? Even the most minor differences can make a difference to a smile. With composite bonding, we can lengthen and even out your teeth so that they match perfectly.
What isn’t it a good fit for?
Composite bonding is a quick treatment, but it’s not an option for all issues. If your teeth have big gaps or are severely misaligned, then something like Invisalign will give you the results that you want. Likewise, if your tooth has a large chip or has broken badly, then composite bonding won’t give you the coverage you need.
