Composite bonding In Esh Winning
Composite bonding or composite veneers is a highly demanded cosmetic treatment offered in our dental practice to provide aesthetic and functional solutions to your dental problems.
Here at Westmount Esh Winning, we take pride in our cosmetic procedures and results. Whether you have stained, decayed, or chipped teeth, composite bonding could be the perfect alternative to restore your smile.
What is Composite Bonding?
Composite bonding is a cosmetic treatment where your teeth receive a tooth-coloured material called composite to improve their appearance while restoring the lost function.
A dental composite is a resin compound, typically made from a mixture of plastic and fine mineralised glass particles, sculpted and polished to perfectly match its surrounding tissues. Then, we use a bonding agent to adhere it to your teeth and a specialised curing light to harden it.

Indications and Applications
Due to its natural look and versatility, composite bonding is used in numerous situations. Sometimes, we use it to repair and restore teeth damaged from decay, erosion, stains, chippings, and fractures. But we can also use composite bonding to enhance your appearance when you have gaps between your teeth or minor anatomic and alignment problems.
What are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are custom-made cosmetic treatments manufactured outside our dental practice to perfectly fit your teeth. Veneers are thin shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth to improve your appearance.
Veneers are primarily used for cosmetic purposes and as a solution when your teeth are stained, worn, chipped, or misaligned. Also, they offer a long-lasting and aesthetic solution to fix your smile.
The veneer process involves several steps, including the following:
Preparing your teeth, removing a thin layer of enamel from your tooth surface to allow space for your veneers.
Taking a dental impression to replicate your tooth preparation and send it to the dental laboratory.
Confection and manufacturing of your custom-made final veneers, and
Adjustment and placement, fixing your veneers with a specialized bonding agent.

Is Composite Bonding Right for Me
One of the most crucial aspects to consider when deciding to have a composite bonding are your aesthetic goals and specific dental needs. Although dental veneers and composite bonding have similar cosmetic purposes, they have distinct benefits and detriments.
A complete examination and a personalised assessment can help determine whether you need one alternative.
Candidate Criteria
You must have healthy teeth and gums to receive a composite bonding treatment. Our ideal candidates are patients with minor cosmetic issues, such as chips, gaps, discolourations, or mild decay, rather than significant damage to their teeth structure.
Consultation and Evaluation
You will need a complete and comprehensive evaluation to assess your current health, discuss your goals, and trace a treatment plan. Also, we might require some additional tests, such as X-rays and digital imaging.

Composites vs Porcelain Veneers
Durability and Longevity
The average lifespan of a porcelain veneer is approximately 15 years or more with the appropriate care. Composite bonding, on the other hand, may last around 5 to 10 years with excellent oral hygiene and maintenance. Both options are highly influenced by your hygiene, diet, and oral habits, such as teeth grinding and bruxism.
Cost and Accessibility
Generally, composite bonding is more affordable than porcelain veneers. Though having veneers can represent a considerable investment, you might value their durability and aesthetic results. However, composite bonding can provide a cost-effective solution for minor cosmetic improvements.
Enamel preservation
The main difference between these treatments is that veneers require wearing down a layer of tooth enamel. Although composite bonding requires surface preparation, it is a more conservative alternative, preserving your natural tooth intact.
Composite Bonding Benefits
Composite bonding has numerous benefits, making it a trending treatment alternative for many patients who seek to improve their appearance. Here are some of its most prominent advantages:
Great aesthetic improvements
Functional Benefits
Low maintenance
Tooth enamel preservation

How Much Does a Composite Bonding Cost?
Factors Influencing Cost
Amount of teeth: more pieces mean a higher cost.
Material and expertise: the materials, labels, and professional expertise can affect your treatment’s cost. Higher quality materials and an experienced professional usually imply a higher cost but better results.
Additional Procedures: some patients require decay removal, pulp capping, and other additional dental procedures that may increase the final budget.
Insurance and Financing Options
When your dental treatment is deemed medically necessary, your insurance company usually covers a portion of the cost of your treatment. However, at Westmount Dental, we offer numerous financing options to make your composite bonding more accessible.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do composite veneers last?
Who is suitable for composite veneers?
You will need to meet the following criteria prior to having composite veneers:
Healthy teeth and gums.
X-ray to check the supporting structures in your mouth are healthy.
No missing teeth or restorations (crowns and veneers) or failing fillings.
No substantial gaps between your teeth.
No considerable structural damage to individual teeth (must have no more than a quarter of a tooth missing).
Relatively well-aligned teeth.
Can I have more than a single composite veneer?
Yes. We can perform a full smile makeover with composite veneers, improving the shape, contour and shade of multiple individual teeth. We will use digital planning technology to ascertain how to shape and contour each individual tooth to achieve a uniform and symmetrical result.
Can I choose my new tooth shade?
If you are having a single tooth treated, we recommend matching this to your natural tooth shade unless you wish to have teeth whitening treatment at a later date. In this case, you will need to have your teeth whitened prior to getting a veneer. This is because composite resin does not respond to the effects of whitening gel.
If you are having all your front top and bottom teeth treated, we will show you a variety of different tooth shades so you can select which you feel would best suit your smile. Some patients may prefer the ‘Hollywood’ look of a white and bright smile, whilst others might wish to opt for a more natural tooth shade. We will listen closely to your expectations of treatment and deliver the fantastic result you expect.
What’s the difference between composite veneers and porcelain veneers?
Porcelain is superior to resin in its capacity to imitate tooth enamel and is the more durable material of the two. We tend to recommend composite veneers as an introductory treatment to patients who haven’t had veneers before, as more natural tooth structure needs to be removed. They are also more appropriate if a tooth is moderately affected by cosmetic damage, as opposed to mildly affected.
Porcelain veneers also do not stain like composite veneers, and on average, a well-made and looked-after porcelain veneer can last 12-15 years.
What can I expect from composite veneer treatment?
The composite veneer process is quick and simple. Your dentist will clean your teeth and apply a gel to roughen its surface, which allows for a strong bond. The resin material is then painted onto the tooth or teeth in liquid form or as putty and then carefully sculpted in place. Meanwhile, a curing light is used to harden the resin. Once a natural-looking shape and dimensions have been achieved, a special light is used to give that beautiful and unmistakable shine to the tooth.

How do I keep my composite veneers clean?
Regular professional cleaning treatment by a hygienist will help to ensure your composite veneers remain natural. A diet low in teeth-staining food and drinks will also help prevent your veneer from becoming discoloured.
Do you offer finance for dental treatment?
Yes, we offer interest-free and interest-bearing finance so that high-quality dental care is accessible to all our patients.
I’m embarrassed about coming in – can you help?
We understand that coming in to seek implant-based treatments is a huge life event. Our clinicians are compassionate people who encounter many patients who feel self-conscious about the condition of their mouths.
