Both treatments use tooth-coloured resin, but they differ in scope and technique.
Composite bonding is a minimally invasive treatment used to repair:
During bonding, the dentist applies a tooth-coloured resin to the tooth, shapes it, and hardens it with a special light. The result blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Composite veneers cover the front surface of multiple teeth to improve tooth shape, length, alignment, or colour. They are a more affordable alternative to porcelain veneers, though they typically do not last as long. With proper care, composite veneers can last 5-10 years, but they can chip, stain, or wear over time and need regular maintenance.
Composite Bonding
Many patients choose to combine bonding or veneers with professional teeth whitening to ensure all teeth match in colour, or ClearCorrect® aligners to optimise tooth positioning before applying the composite. This can produce a more harmonious, long-lasting result.
Both procedures are minimally invasive and usually require little or no anaesthetic. Our experienced team explains each step, making the experience comfortable and reassuring.
