Cosmetic Bonding To Repair Teeth - Non Invasive Cosmetic Dentistry

We strongly believe in the most minimally invasive techniques to repair and enhance teeth. One such technique is called cosmetic bonding. Cosmetic bonding involves the addition of highly aesthetic composite filling material to broken, chipped, worn teeth to enhance the overall appearance and provide a strong protective layer. The process is really very simple but involves a great deal of skill and artistry. It is not just a case of simply filling a tooth! The steps involved are:

1. Ensure that the surfaces are clean. A hygiene visit may be required.
2. Polish and sharp edges to ensure a smooth surface. 
3. The bonding process begins. This depends on the technique the dentist uses. 
4. The shade/ colour of the bonding material is chosen.
5. The material is layered very carefully under strictly isolated conditions. 
6. The bonding is then contoured and polished to a high gloss ensuring the bite is correct as well. 
7. Complete! Easy as that. 

Here is a case that was recently treated at Progressive Dentistry by Dr Nissit Patel using G-aenial composite.

Cosmetic Dental Treatment Involving Front Teeth

Our case of the month for April is a wonderful cosmetic dental treatment involving front teeth. The treatment is called composite bonding. This is essentially a treatment to enhance the appearance of the teeth by naturally replacing lost tooth enamel and dentine using the most aesthetic dental materials available.

The Future Of Cosmetic Dentistry

We strongly believe in non invasive techniques to enhance smiles. Long gone are the days when teeth needed to hacked away with destructive techniques to provide a new smile. Modern day dentistry encompasses minimally invasive techniques which require no needles, no drilling and no pain! For example, our case study below wanted to close the gaps between the teeth. They were told that porcelain veneers would be required, which involved removing all the tooth enamel and many thousands of pounds. 

However, our Principal Dentist Dr Nissit Patel advised another solution; composite bonding. This involved no drilling, no needles and was far more affordable. In addition, the maintenance is simple and cost effective. There really are no downsides.
