Dentistry Gaps between teeth and above the gums, uneven teeth, chips or discolouration are all reasons that people come to Evolve Dentistry for BioClear bonding.
This Bioclear Bonding composite resin applied by your dentist using adhesives and a visible blue light to bond the material to your tooth can dramatically enhance your smile in just one appointment.
Our Clinical Director, Carol is one of the few accredited dentists in the UK and has been successfully using the system with outstanding results since 2017.
BioClear comes under the term of minimally invasive dentistry. These are treatments that preserve all or most of the tooth structure, often requiring no injections to carry out the work. The treatment itself is faster than other options like veneers and also less expensive.
BioClear composites can last up to 10 years with regular dental and hygienist appointments, they only need to be repolished occasionally.
Composite bonding costs from £347 per tooth.
Composite bonding is a cosmetic dental treatment where a tooth-coloured material is applied to teeth to fix imperfections such as chips, cracks, gaps, or discolouration. It’s a quick and minimally invasive way to improve your smile.
The procedure is typically pain-free and often doesn’t require any anaesthetic. It’s non-invasive, so most patients experience little to no discomfort during or after the treatment.
Bonding a single tooth usually takes between 30 and 60 minutes. If multiple teeth are involved, the treatment may take longer, but many cases can be completed in a single visit.
With proper care, composite bonding can last anywhere from 3 to 10 years. Its durability depends on factors such as oral hygiene, diet, and habits like teeth grinding or nail biting.
No — the material used in composite bonding does not respond to whitening treatments. If you’re planning to whiten your teeth, it’s best to do so before having the bonding done, so the bonding material can be matched to your new tooth shade.
You should maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice daily, flossing, and attending regular dental check-ups. Avoid nail biting, chewing pens, or opening packages with your teeth, as these can damage the bonding.
Many patients are suitable candidates, but those with severe tooth decay, gum disease, or who grind their teeth may need to address these issues first. A consultation with your dentist will determine whether bonding is right for you.
Prices typically range from £200 to £450 per tooth, depending on the complexity and number of teeth treated. Practices may offer payment plans or finance options to make treatment more affordable.
In most cases, composite bonding is considered a cosmetic procedure and isn’t available on the NHS. It is usually offered as a private treatment.
Composite bonding involves applying resin directly to the tooth’s surface and is less invasive. Veneers are custom-made porcelain shells that require more preparation and are more durable but also more expensive.

Why is my dentist taking photographs of my teeth?
“Why are you taking photographs of my teeth?”
A perfectly reasonable question.
Dental photographs aren`t just for before-and-afters.
They can help us record what we`re seeing, monitor changes, explain things more clearly and involve you in conversations about your own teeth.
Richard explains why you might see a camera appear during an appointment at Evolve.
Because when we`re talking about your mouth, we think it`s rather useful if you can see what we`re talking about too.
There`s more to a smile transformation than two photographs
A before-and-after shows you two moments.
What it doesn`t show is everything that happened between them.
The conversations. The planning. What the patient wanted to change. The different options considered. And the decisions about what not to change.
That`s why we think the story behind a smile is every bit as interesting as the finished result.
Every patient is different - and every treatment plan should be too.
Here`s one of the lovely transformations we`ve had the privilege of being part of at Evolve. 💚
What actually happens during a dental examination?
If it’s been a while since your last dental examination, not knowing what to expect can sometimes make booking that appointment feel like a much bigger deal.
So what actually happens when you come in?
Richard explains what your dentist is looking for during a dental examination - and why it involves much more than simply checking whether you need a filling.
Regular examinations give us an opportunity to keep an eye on your teeth, gums and mouth, talk about anything that has changed and identify anything that may need our attention.
And if you haven’t been for a while? Please don’t feel embarrassed.
We’re simply pleased you’ve decided to come and see us.
