Today, our dedicated dentists here in Tunbridge Wells answer some commonly asked questions about composite bonding treatment, from how long results last to how much it costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why have composite bonding?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our patients opt for composite bonding when they want to create a smile that&#8217;s more uniform. It can be carried out as part of a <a href=\"https:\/\/townhousedentalpractice.co.uk\/cosmetic-treatments\/composite-bonding\/\">smile makeover treatment<\/a>, alongside procedures such as <a href=\"https:\/\/townhousedentalpractice.co.uk\/cosmetic-treatments\/invisalign\/\">Invisalign braces<\/a>, or on its own. It&#8217;s often recommended for those who have slight chips in their teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Does composite bonding hurt?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a pain-free, minimally invasive treatment, which means you can enjoy fantastic results without any discomfort &#8211; and no need for anaesthetic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is composite bonding expensive?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/townhousedentalpractice.co.uk\/fees-plans\/\">prices<\/a> start from just \u00a3250* a tooth. Many patients have treatment on the upper front four teeth, as these are often the most noticeable of the smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can you whiten composite bonding?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No, so <a href=\"https:\/\/townhousedentalpractice.co.uk\/cosmetic-treatments\/teeth-whitening\/\">teeth whitening<\/a> is carried out beforehand. Then, the composite can simply be colour-matched to the new shade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What happens during treatment?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The material used is a type of resin that&#8217;s applied to your teeth as a putty, then hardened under UV light. It can be expertly shaped and sculpted before being &#8216;set&#8217; in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Will I need to have my teeth done again?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, though most patients find the treatment lasts up to 7 years. Of course, this depends on factors like diet and lifestyle &#8211; so for lasting results, anything that could crack or chip the teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why choose you?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our talented dentists here in Tunbridge Wells have years of combined experience and offer the very best in dental care \u2013 all while ensuring you have a range of cutting-edge cosmetic and restorative treatments to choose from.
