How long does composite bonding last?
Bonding can last between 3 to 10 years if it’s well maintained, after this, you may need to have it replaced, repaired or repolished.
Is composite bonding good for your teeth?
Bonding is a minimally invasive, fairly quick way to improve your teeth. It can be used to repair a small chip, close black triangles between teeth or smooth out uneven edges.
Is composite bonding painful?
Dental bonding is a painless, minimally invasive treatment that provides instant results. You can request that your dentists numb you before treatment if you wish, although this isn’t always necessary.
Can bonded teeth be whitened?
It’s usually recommended that you whiten your teeth ahead of having bonding treatment, so that the bonding used can be matched to your whitened tooth colour.
Can bottom front teeth be bonded?
Composite bonding can be used to improve the look of both your upper and lower teeth as well.
How long does bonding a tooth take?
It usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes to bond one tooth, if you require bonding of more than 1 tooth it should be quicker for subsequent teeth if treated at the same time.
Can I brush my teeth after bonding?
Absolutely, it’s important to ensure that you look after your bonding to ensure that it lasts as long as possible. Brushing for at least 2 minutes, twice a day and flossing / using TePe brushes will help to ensure that your bonding lasts.
Is bonding the same as veneers?
With composite bonding, a material is applied to the surface of your teeth and then cured with a special light, which hardens the material ensuring it securely adheres to your teeth. Veneers, however, are thin, custom-made porcelain restorations that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth, which could involve the removal of some tooth enamel.
