Cheer Up Your Choppers This Christmas with Cosmetic Bonding

Nothing will make you look forward to Christmas more than the prospect of a beautiful smile, so why not book an appointment to get those little imperfections sorted in perfect time for the festive season? With cosmetic bonding, we can transform your smile in just one hour!

What is cosmetic bonding?

Cosmetic bonding is a procedure designed to correct minor aesthetic issues with the teeth, such as chips and worn edges, misshapen teeth and small gaps between the teeth. Bonding only takes an hour and it can really make a difference to the look of your smile. Bonding treatment involves using a versatile dental material known as dental composite to carry out minor repairs to the teeth and create a more attractive overall aesthetic. Dental composite is tooth-coloured and comes in lots if different shades. Your dentist will select the closest match to your natural tooth shade for a seamless finish. Bonding involves shaping and placing dental composite to build up worn edges, improve the shape of the teeth and repair chips. Your dentist will carefully position the composite and then mould it to create the desired effect. At room temperature, composite is soft and malleable and once it is in the right place, your dentist will then shine a curing light onto your teeth to set the composite. Although dental composite is not as strong as tooth enamel, it is durable and hard-wearing.

Is cosmetic bonding for me?

If you have a few issues here and there and are eager to smarten up your smile without spending a lot of money or time in the dental chair, cosmetic bonding could be the ideal solution for you. Even though the changes seem fairly minor, the overall transformation is incredibly impressive, especially as treatment takes just one hour.

Repair Chipped Teeth with Composite Bonding

What is composite bonding?

Composite bonding, also known as cosmetic bonding, is a commonly used dental procedure and an excellent option for patients with chipped or worn teeth. In this procedure, the dentist uses their experience and skill to shape soft dental composite to repair chips and increase the bulk of tooth structure on worn surfaces to enhance the aesthetic of the smile. During the first stage of treatment, the composite is soft and this enables your dentist to mould it. Once the composite is in the right place, your dentist will then use a curing light to harden it and the tooth will be stronger, as well as looking more aesthetically pleasing. Bonding generally takes less than an hour, there is no pain and therefore no injections and the results are amazing. Even the smallest chip in the tooth can make you feel self-conscious about the look of your smile and chips can also increase the risk of further damage to the tooth. With bonding, the tooth becomes stronger and your smile looks gorgeous and healthy. Bonding can also be used to reduce the size of a gap between two teeth.

Is cosmetic bonding the best option?

There are other options available for chipped and worn teeth, such as veneers and other restorative treatments. However, in cases where the damage is minor and patients are looking for a quick solution, this treatment is often the best choice. If you have chipped or worn teeth, call our friendly reception team today and we can arrange a consultation to go through the different treatment options with you.

About cosmetic bonding

Cosmetic bonding is an aesthetic procedure designed to reshape and repair the teeth using a material called dental composite. Composite has a putty like consistency at room temperature and it comes in an array of shades designed to match natural tooth shades. Your dentist will use their skill to place the composite onto the individual teeth and shape it to address problems such as uneven and worn surfaces, jagged edges, chips and gaps between the teeth. Once the composite is in the right place and your dentist is happy with the new aesthetic, they will shine a curing light onto the material and this sets it. Once the composite has set, you won’t be able to tell the difference between the natural tooth structure and the composite.

Who can benefit from cosmetic bonding?

Cosmetic bonding is a simple and quick cosmetic treatment that offers an ideal solution for those who have mild imperfections affecting the shape or look of the teeth. Minor changes are made to the individual teeth, but the overall impact is incredible and after just an hour, you’ll be surprised at the difference.

What is dental bonding and what does treatment entail?

The procedure uses dental composite, a tooth-coloured material, to modify the appearance of individual teeth.

Cosmetic bonding is not uncomfortable, so you won’t need any anaesthetic beforehand and you can see the amazing results straight after treatment.

Improve your Smile quickly using Composite Treatment in Bath

2904346_blogWe’re not all blessed with perfect pearly whites, but if you suffer an injury, you chip your tooth or you have a worn tooth, cosmetic contouring can help to restore your beautiful smile. This incredible treatment is simple, safe and effective, there is no pain involved and you’ll be amazed at the difference it makes. Cosmetic contouring is designed to re-shape the teeth to create a more attractive smile. Your Clifton Dental Studio will use their expertise to gently re-shape the teeth to address chips, worn surfaces and misshapen teeth; a specially designed polishing instrument is used to smooth rough edges and improve the shape of the teeth. The procedure usually takes less than an hour and simple changes to individual teeth have an incredible impact on the overall aesthetic of the smile. There is no need for patients to have anaesthetic because it is only the outer enamel surface, which is involved in the procedure, and therefore you will not feel any pain and you won’t have to deal with unpleasant numbness after treatment. As well as aesthetic benefits, tooth contouring can also help to boost oral health, as reducing crowding and making the teeth more uniform makes teeth cleaning easier.

Bristol chooses Cosmetic Bonding for a fast fix

2445507_blogIt is always lovely to retain a beautiful smile, especially as you get older and your teeth are starting to suffer from ravishes that life and age are throwing at them. If you find yourself in this predicament, it isn’t hard to rectify, especially if you choose to go for cosmetic bonding; this is probably the best treatment for cost, effectiveness and versatility you could go for. It involves rebuilding the damage areas and hiding them away with layers of white coloured resin (matched to the colour of your teeth), and once everything is tucked away, the teeth can be sculptured and polished until they fit in precisely with the rest of your mouth. The results will look great and it will only take an hour to achieve this. The only flaw with using resin is that it isn’t as durable as say porcelain veneers and comes with a shelf-life of around 5 years- it is also susceptible to staining. However, this can be simply remedied again by popping back for a top-up when things go wrong. Ask Clifton Dental about bonding and get this wonder treatment done in Bristol.

The magic of Cosmetic Bonding in Swindon

Sometimes, the ageing process can get the better of us and slowly but surely, the cracks will start to appear in all parts of the body- your teeth may also begin to suffer and it can seriously affect the way you smile. However, we are lucky to live in a beautiful world of cosmetic treatments and so we can push back those boundaries of ageing. One of the ways you can get your smile back on track is through cosmetic bonding- quick, cheap and sensational. This treatment involves layering your teeth with resin, over and over again until all your problems have been covered up. Then, they are shaped until the entire looks of the teeth have been restored to something more ‘youthful’. It is such a simple way to turn back time and costs from around £200 upwards, depending on what needs doing. The only drawback to having cosmetic bonding is that it is susceptible to staining because the resin is porous, but because the resin is versatile, it can easily be touched-up if anything goes wrong.
