We can restore broken or chipped teeth and give you a beautiful smile again with composite bonding.
Book an AppointmentComposite bonding is a cosmetic dental procedure that involves applying a tooth-coloured resin material, a durable plastic composite filling, to a tooth. This material is hardened with a special light, effectively “bonding” it to the tooth and enhancing your smile.
Bonding has long been a cost-effective alternative to crowns or veneers for enhancing smiles. Its popularity has increased recently due to stronger, more attractive materials. Plus, composite bonding is less invasive, often needing little to no removal of the existing tooth structure.
Composite bonding is a simple solution to address minor dental imperfections, enhance your confidence, and rejuvenate your smile.
It can effectively repair:
We’ll begin with an initial consultation with our Southampton dentist, to discuss your smile goals and develop a personalised treatment plan.
The best part? Composite bonding doesn’t require any drilling or numbing injections, so it can typically be completed in just one appointment.
Composite bonding can repair chipped, cracked, or broken teeth, close small gaps, reshape uneven teeth, cover stains that whitening can’t remove, and protect exposed tooth roots caused by gum recession. It’s an effective way to enhance your smile without invasive treatment.
With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, composite bonding typically lasts 5–7 years. Its longevity depends on your bite, eating habits, and whether you clench or grind your teeth. Periodic polishing or small touch-ups can help extend its lifespan.
No—composite bonding is usually pain-free. It doesn’t require drilling or injections, making it a comfortable option for nervous or sensitive patients. Most treatments are completed in one appointment.
Composite bonding is ideal for minor imperfections and offers a quick, cost-effective solution with minimal tooth alteration. Veneers or crowns are better for larger restorations, severe discolouration, or long-term durability. Your dentist will advise which option suits your needs best.
To maintain your results, avoid biting hard objects, limit highly staining foods and drinks, and maintain regular brushing and dental visits. Wearing a nightguard is recommended if you grind your teeth, as this helps prevent chipping or wear.
