Composite Veneers and Bonding
Composite procedures are among the methods that may be considered to adjust the shape and appearance of a tooth.
The appropriate option is determined by assessing the condition of the tooth and the patient’s expectations. Contact our clinic for information about the service.
About composite veneers and bonding
Bonding and composite veneers are options that may be considered to adjust shape and appearance by applying tooth-coloured composite material to the tooth surface. They may not be suitable for every person or tooth.
Who may be assessed for treatment?
Tooth and gum health, existing fillings, bite, clenching habits and expectations are assessed. Other treatments may be needed first. Contact the clinic to learn whether these procedures are offered.
Treatment plan and stages
When appropriate, the tooth surface is prepared, composite material is applied, shaped and hardened, and the surface is then finished. Stages and appointment numbers vary with the condition of the teeth.
Care and follow-up
Composite restorations may stain, wear or break over time; when needed, the clinician assesses repair or replacement options. Continue brushing, cleaning between teeth and attending recommended check-ups.
Frequently asked questions
Is it always completed in one appointment?
The time and number of appointments depend on the extent of the procedure and oral health.
Will tooth material be removed?
The need for preparation depends on the tooth’s condition and the chosen method; your clinician will explain this before treatment.
What happens if it breaks?
Your clinician will assess the restoration and determine whether repair or replacement is needed.
This information is general; diagnosis and treatment planning are determined by an individual clinical assessment.
