Watch your confidence rocket with
Composite Bonding Bournemouth
Wow! Imagine that. A brand new, confident smile in just one single appointment. Well, that’s one of the biggest benefits of looking to transform your smile with composite bonding.
If you’re looking to change the shape or size of your teeth, close annoying spaces between them or have a fuller, wider smile this could be the option for you.
The wonders of the treatment are endless, but here are some of the ways Smile Stories can help you with composite bonding:
Where we only add composite only to the edges. This is perfect to increase their size or shape, close up spaces, fix chips and lengthen them.
But your teeth need to be straight to do this.
If they’re crooked you may need Invisalign or composite veneers.
We select specific areas to add composite, sometimes worn grooves or those pesky in-betweeny triangles where gums might have receded over time.
With careful polishing and buffing you’d barely know they ever existed.
We bond composite to the whole front surface of your tooth to completely mask what’s underneath.
Think of it as a shellac nail. They can whiten, straighten, close up large spaces, reverse worn-looking teeth and even widen your smile.
All you need to do is send us 6 simple photos of your smile.
Our Aesthetic Dentists will analyse these and send a bespoke Confident Smile Report advising you of your options to achieve your smile goals. From there you can book in for a complimentary Video Consultation.
Why bother?
You’ll get an idea of what’s possible to get you smiling confidently without giving up your time or money at a dental appointment. It’s completely risk-free!
You’ll come away with an easy to read action plan, and an estimate of costs and a timescale to create your beautiful new smile.
Sound good?
Not at all.
We usually do it all in one appointment, without drilling or injections.
However, they don’t last as long and need more maintenance than porcelain veneers. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, and as long as you understand them we’ll help you make the choice right for you.
After the bonding procedure, you need to care for your teeth as you would normally, cleaning them twice daily and flossing/using interdental brushes daily. Attend your regular health checks where our team can look after your bonding.
One disadvantage with teeth bonding is that smoking and chewing tobacco can cause staining like it does your teeth. These stains are very difficult to remove and may even result in the dental bonding needing to be repeated. Drinking excessive tea and coffee, eating a lot of curries, red wine (sorry) and other dark liquids can also cause the dental bonding composite to stain.
When eating with bonded front teeth, avoid chewing hard foods directly onto the composite areas as this can cause them to chip. Don’t chew pens or bite your nails, and stop opening bottles with your teeth!
Cosmetic tooth bonding is where we ‘bond’ white coloured resin material onto your teeth.
Composite is a plasticine-like putty which comes in different shades, which we match to your teeth so create a perfect blend.
We’d always recommend teeth whitening first. Everyone wants whiter teeth, and if you choose to whiten after bonding then the bonding doesn’t change colour.
1. Colour matching -We make sure the bonding material matches your tooth to get the perfect blend.
2. Isolation – What?! We place a rubber sheet over the teeth we’re bonding. Dry bonding = the best bonding. It also means you get no unpleasant tastes in your mouth.
3. Shampoo and Condition – We’re getting ready…
4. The arty bit – We hand-sculpt the ‘composite’ material, and when it’s looking perfect we then set with a blue light to harden it. You have your tooth back.
5. Polishing – We make it look natural and completely blend in with your teeth. Nobody will ever know.
Voila!

Unlikely. Teeth aren’t usually sensitive after the cosmetic dental bonding procedure. This is nothing to worry about and will likely settle down after a few days.
