Composite bonding is a versatile cosmetic dental treatment that offers a quick and effective way to enhance your smile by addressing minor imperfections. At One80 Dental in Sheffield, your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities throughout the bonding process. Here’s what you can expect during your appointment:

1. Consultation and Assessment

Your composite bonding journey begins with a detailed consultation. During this initial step:

• Our dentist will thoroughly examine your teeth and discuss your aesthetic goals.
• We’ll assess whether composite bonding is the right treatment for you based on your dental needs.
• You’ll receive a clear explanation of the procedure, including expected results, timelines, and aftercare guidance.
  This is also the perfect opportunity to ask any questions or address any concerns you may have.

2. Shade Matching and Preparation

Once you decide to proceed, your dentist will carefully match the composite resin to the natural shade of your teeth, ensuring the enhancements blend seamlessly with your smile. Minimal preparation is required:

• In most cases, your natural tooth structure remains intact, as composite bonding is a non-invasive treatment.
• The tooth surface may be lightly etched to help the resin bond securely.

This step ensures a natural, harmonious appearance that complements your existing teeth.

3. Application and Shaping

The composite resin is applied directly to the surface of the tooth in small, precise layers. Your dentist will:

• Sculpt and shape the resin to correct imperfections, such as chips, gaps, or uneven edges.
• Cure each layer using a specialised light, hardening the material to create a durable and long-lasting finish.
  This process is done with great attention to detail to achieve a natural and aesthetically pleasing result.

4. Polishing and Final Touches

After the resin is fully shaped and cured, your dentist will polish the bonded area to ensure it blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. This step:

• Adds a smooth, radiant finish.
• Enhances the bonding’s durability and resistance to staining.

The result is a flawless, natural-looking smile that’s virtually indistinguishable from your other teeth.

5. Aftercare and Maintenance Advice

Before you leave, your dentist will provide personalised aftercare guidance to help maintain your bonded teeth. Recommendations typically include:

• Practising excellent oral hygiene, including regular brushing and flossing.
• Avoiding habits like biting hard objects or chewing on ice to prevent damage.
• Scheduling routine dental check-ups to monitor and maintain the appearance of your bonded teeth.

With proper care, composite bonding can remain beautiful and functional for many years.
