Composite bonding is a popular cosmetic dental treatment that enhances your smile by applying tooth-coloured resin to address chips, cracks, gaps, or discolouration. At Ashtead Dental, we offer this minimally invasive procedure to deliver immediate, natural-looking results at an affordable cost, typically around £400 per tooth—far less than veneers or crowns.

How It Works

The procedure is completed in a single visit. Your dentist assesses your teeth, cleans and prepares the surface, applies an etching gel for adhesion, and then sculpts the composite resin to match your natural tooth colour. A curing light hardens the resin, creating a seamless, durable result. This conservative approach preserves most of your natural tooth structure, making it a preferred choice for many.

Benefits and Longevity

Composite bonding is cost-effective, quick, and minimally invasive, offering a stunning smile transformation in one appointment. With proper care, it lasts 5–10 years, depending on oral hygiene and habits. Regular dental check-ups and avoiding habits like nail-biting help maintain its appearance and durability.

Risks and Maintenance

While risks are low, the resin may chip if not cared for properly. Brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and regular dental visits ensure longevity. Compared to veneers or crowns, bonding is less durable but more affordable and quicker to apply.
