Composite Bonding Marylebone

Composite bonding is a cosmetic dental treatment that uses a tooth-coloured resin to reshape, repair, or enhance the appearance of teeth.

The material is applied, sculpted, and polished in a single appointment to blend naturally with your smile. It’s often used to fix chips, close small gaps, or improve symmetry, with minimal or no drilling.

No. Composite bonding is typically painless. Since the procedure is non-invasive and doesn’t usually require drilling or anaesthetic, most patients experience no discomfort during or after treatment.

With good oral hygiene and regular dental care, composite bonding can last 5 to 7 years, sometimes longer. Longevity depends on the area treated, lifestyle habits (like smoking or biting nails), and regular professional maintenance.

Yes, over time, the resin used in composite bonding can become discoloured, especially if exposed to staining substances like coffee, red wine, tea, or tobacco.

We recommend regular hygiene appointments and avoiding dark-coloured foods and drinks when possible.

Caring for composite bonding is simple:

• Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste.
• Floss daily to prevent plaque buildup.
• Avoid biting hard objects (pens, ice, fingernails).
• Attend regular check-ups and hygiene appointments. This helps maintain both the appearance and durability of the bonding.

Yes. Composite bonding is a great option for closing small gaps between teeth, especially when orthodontic treatment isn’t needed. It offers a fast solution with natural-looking results.

Composite bonding is ideal for patients with healthy teeth and gums who want to improve cosmetic concerns. It may not be suitable for those with severe misalignment, heavy grinding (bruxism), or large structural issues, in which case veneers, crowns, or orthodontics may be recommended.

Prices start from £395 per tooth, depending on the complexity of your case. For patients having multiple teeth treated, a reduced rate may be available.

We also offer 0% interest-free finance plans over 36 months to help you spread the cost. You’ll receive a tailored quote during your consultation.

Absolutely. Many of our patients combine composite bonding with Invisalign®, professional teeth whitening, or a full smile makeover. Our dentists will help create a personalised treatment plan to suit your goals.

It depends on your needs. Composite bonding is more affordable and less invasive than porcelain veneers, but it may not last as long or resist staining as effectively.

Veneers may be better suited for more significant cosmetic changes or longer-term results.

Yes. Composite bonding is considered a reversible treatment because it usually requires little to no alteration of the natural tooth structure.

This means you can explore other cosmetic options in the future, such as veneers or orthodontics, without compromising your teeth.

No. When performed by a skilled cosmetic dentist, composite bonding does not harm the natural tooth structure. In fact, it is one of the most minimally invasive cosmetic treatments available, preserving as much of your natural enamel as possible.

Most composite bonding treatments take between 30 and 60 minutes per tooth. A full smile makeover with multiple teeth can often be completed in a single visit, depending on complexity.

You will always be given a review to ensure you’re happy with the results, and any minor refinements can be made at that stage.

Immediately after treatment, your teeth may feel slightly different due to the smooth, reshaped surfaces. However, this feeling usually fades quickly as you adjust to the new shape.

Yes. One of the advantages of composite bonding is that it can be easily repaired or re-polished if chipped, stained, or worn down over time.

Yes. At Bond Dental, we are all about creating natural-looking smiles with beautifully subtle results. Each tooth is hand-sculpted by your cosmetic dentist; there’s no one-size-fits-all approach.

We carefully match the shade and shape of each bonded tooth so it blends in seamlessly with your natural smile, enhancing what’s already there, without looking overdone.

You can eat and drink as soon as the procedure is complete. However, it’s advisable to avoid very hard or highly staining foods for the first 24 hours.
