Composite tooth bonding is pain-free, simple and easy treatment which is normally completed within one session. The non-invasive procedure can quickly and effectively make cosmetic changes to your mouth and smile.
Our award-winning team of Banbury dentists will carry out the tooth bonding treatment by following a series of steps:
- Our dentists will compare the shades of the affected teeth and match the resin to your teeth for a smooth and seamless transition. Matching the resin to the tooth also ensures a natural look.
- To eliminate the risk of post-procedure infections, our dentists will conduct a dental hygiene treatment and thoroughly clean your teeth. This also helps better form the resin in your teeth.
- Depending on the severity of your case, dentists may need to remove any decayed or rotten parts of your teeth.
- After your teeth have been inspected and cleaned, your dentist will begin to prepare the bonded area of your tooth. A 30% phosphoric acid tooth conditioner is applied to the tooth, exactly where the resin will be. Removing the smooth surface of your tooth and preparing your tooth for the resin to form.
- A small brush is used to apply a thin layer of bonding agent to your tooth.
- Then the resin/composite material is applied directly to the prepared surface of the tooth and moulded to the desired shape and size.
- Once applied, composite material is placed under a UV light until it has hardened.
- Finally, your dentist may need to trim, polish, shape or layer the composite to ensure the final appearance is perfect.
