Composite bonding

A non-invasive use of tooth-coloured filling material to lengthen or re-shape the front teeth.

Bonding uses a composite resin to close spaces, change the colour of the teeth, mask any discolorations, repair chips, change the size or shape of teeth, and give crooked or uneven teeth a straight-looking appearance.

Cosmetic bonding can be used on a single tooth or transform an entire smile. It is a simple technique that allows the white filling material to bond to the natural tooth, usually without the need to prepare/shape the tooth and is completed in one short visit. Another advantage of this technique is that an anaesthetic is not normally required, allowing you to smile with confidence, immediately. An artistic eye is required in order to produce natural seamless results and the dental team at Oakmead Dental Care have trained extensively in this procedure, transforming many smiles.

After cosmetic bonding, your new smile should last several years depending on your lifestyle. Smoking, drinking or using your teeth as tools, may reduce the life expectancy of the bonding and you may need to get your teeth polished once a year as the bonding material stains more readily than natural teeth.

Call us on 01342 325363 to book a consultation and discuss your smile makeover options.

I have been attending Oakmead many years, and the team understands any issues I have.

14th November 2025

Paul Cassidy and his nurse were welcoming and detailed exactly what would happen during my appointment. Paul always comes to the front of the chair to talk to me and this is appreciated as in previous practices the dentist talks to the back of your head.The fitting of my new denture took place without problem and Paul,advised me of the probably issues that could arise whilst the denture settled in and that if I needed I could revisit him if I experience and problems.
