A minimally invasive way to reshape, repair and brighten teeth — often in a single visit, usually without drilling.
Composite bonding uses tooth-coloured resin, sculpted directly onto the tooth and set with a light, to improve its shape, close small gaps, repair chips or refine the edges. It's applied in layers and polished to blend with your natural teeth.
Because it usually requires little or no removal of natural tooth, bonding is one of the most conservative cosmetic options — and is often reversible compared with veneers or crowns.
We discuss what you'd like to change and check the teeth are healthy and suitable.
We match the resin to your teeth and plan the shape together.
The resin is applied, sculpted and set — usually in a single visit, often without anaesthetic.
The bonding is polished to a natural finish, with simple care advice.
Bonding usually requires little or no removal of natural tooth, making it one of the more conservative cosmetic options. We'll confirm it's suitable for you at your consultation.

Bonding is great for smaller changes and is more conservative; veneers can be better for larger or longer-lasting transformations. We'll talk through both at your consultation.
