Quickly and affordably update your smile in Dunstable

Composite bonding is the fast, easy and painless way to disguise minor cosmetic dental issues.

Composite bonding, also known as dental bonding or teeth bonding is a cosmetic dental treatment that uses a tooth-coloured dental resin to shape, smooth and fill a variety of cosmetic dental flaws.

Composite bonding can be used to:

  • Treat chipped teeth
  • Fill in gaps between teeth
  • Prevent cracks from spreading
  • Disguise heavy stains on teeth
  • Make uneven teeth appear uniform
  • Disguise pointy teeth
  • Make small teeth appear longer
  • Give uneven teeth a more identical look

Patients from Totternhoe, Dunstable, Houghton Regis, Sewell and Bedfordshire are choosing dental bonding because it is an effective and affordable cosmetic dental treatment to improve your smile.

How does composite bonding work in Dunstable?

At the first consultation we will talk through what you’d like to change about your teeth and discuss the process for composite bonding.

At your next appointment, your dentist will choose a resin colour that closely matches your natural tooth colour so that it looks completely natural.

Your dentist then prepares your tooth by gently etching at the surface and coating it in a special liquid. The resin is then applied to the surface of the tooth and gently moulded and shaped into place.

Once you and your dentist are happy with the results, a curing light is placed over your mouth to fix the dental resin in place.

Finally, your dentist will finish the treatment by polishing your teeth to ensure that they are lovely and smooth.

Dental bonding is often completed in just one appointment with your dentist. The number of appointments needed will depend upon how many teeth you’re treating, and the complexity of the work carried out.

FAQ's for Composite Bonding

Can I get composite bonding on the NHS?

Unfortunately, you cannot get this service on the NHS because teeth bonding is a cosmetic dental service which means it is used to update the look of your teeth rather than being necessary to help the health of your teeth. At Dunstable Dental Practice, we offer 0% finance to help make this and other cosmetic dental services affordable.

How long do the results for dental bonding last?

This varies between individuals, but generally, composite bonding should last between five and eight years. After this time, you may need your composite bonding updated or replaced.

Does teeth bonding hurt?

No, composite bonding is non-invasive and pain free.

As usual, polite, caring and great service, thank you! I've been going here for years now, they're honest, lovely receptionists, my dentist and the hygienist too. When I asked for a treatment he didn't think I needed, after a private dentist tried to persuade me to have it, he assured me that I really didn't, when he could've taken nearly £4000 from me. Good dentists are worth their weight in gold! Many thanks again! Jean

Everyone is friendly and professional. My Dentist Danyel is one of the best dentists i have ever had.
Bethany B.
I went in for my child as she had a previous filling come out, the dr did a very quick job of fixing the problem, and my child is no longer in pain, so were very grateful. They’re always nice and friendly and do apologise if you’ve waited a little longer to be seen. And as always a sticker is great, the children love it
