Dental bonding is a cosmetic dentistry procedure in which a tooth-coloured composite white filling material is applied to a tooth, sculpted into shape, hardened, and polished. It is called bonding because the material bonds to the tooth. Also called ‘composite bonding’ – it is ideal for small cosmetic dentistry work, such as fixing a broken or chipped tooth or closing small gaps between teeth.

Composite bonding is a relatively inexpensive way to make minor dental repairs or change the shape of teeth. Increasingly patients are opting for this as a solution as opposed to alternative methods due to its cost and limited or no tooth removal. Alongside this, there is usually no need for any local anaesthetic or injections. This makes it a pain free way to improve your smile.

Advantages of Cosmetic Bonding:

• Cost: The average cost of dental bonding ranges per tooth from £350 – £450 per tooth. Speed: Dental bonding typically requires 1-2 visits.
• Ease: Injections or anaesthesia is usually not needed, unless bonding is being used to fill a decayed tooth.
• Compared to veneers and crowns, dental bonding also requires the least amount, or no tooth removal.
