What is Composite Bonding?
Composite bonding is a cosmetic dental procedure that fixes aesthetic and functional issues with a resinous material called composite.
Dental composite is a mixture of resin, glass particles, and plastic materials with high versatility in modern dentistry. Due to its malleability and aesthetic appearance, it allows us to create tooth-alike restorations and fillings with functional results.
Composite bonding allows us to restore damaged teeth with a tooth-coloured material to improve your appearance while regaining their function.
Our specialists sculpt and shape the composite to match the colour and shape of your natural teeth and reconstruct their lost structure. Then, we attach it to your teeth with a bonding agent and a specialised curing light. You can also contact Westmount Composite Bonding Ferryhill by emailing us at enquiries@
Applications of Composite Bonding
Composite bonding is used in numerous situations thanks to its high durability and versatility. However, it is typically used to repair and restore the following scenarios:
- Extensive or mild decay
- Enamel erosion
- Dental stains
- Chipped and cracked teeth
Also, we composite bonding to enhance your look when there are gaps between your front teeth, but without having to perform tooth preparation.
What are Dental Veneers?
Veneers are personalised shells made from ceramics or porcelain. We designed them to adapt, fit, and cover the front face of your damaged teeth. Unlike composite bonding, veneers are made outside our dental practice.
Veneers are typically used for cosmetic purposes. They are particularly effective for stained, chipped, worn, or slightly misaligned teeth.
Moreover, we value dental veneers due to their high durability and aesthetic properties with minimally invasive wear to your teeth surfaces.
Your dental veneers require multiple dental appointments:
- Tooth preparation: we remove a thin layer of enamel from the affected teeth to allow room for the new material.
- Dental impression: we replicate the previous wear and tooth preparation with a dental impression and send it to our dental laboratory for confection.
- Temporary veneers: while you wait for your new veneers, we place a temporary protective and aesthetic shell over your teeth.
- Design and manufacture: our dental laboratory uses your impression to design and create your custom-made veneers.
- Placement and bonding: once we receive your veneers, we perform multiple tests and fix your dental veneers with a specialised bonding agent.
- Polishing and aftercare: after bonding the veneers, we eliminate possible excesses and provide recommendations for long-lasting results.

Is Composite Bonding Right for Me?
Your compatibility with the treatment depends on your initial evaluation, the complexity of your case, and your needs and expectations. Not everyone is a good candidate for composite bonding.
As a result, your eligibility for the treatment depends on your assessment and the experience of our specialists.
Candidate Criteria
Although composite bonding can treat decayed or damaged teeth, you require reasonable good oral health to receive the treatment.
Our ideal candidates show minor cosmetic or functional issues, including:
- Discolouration’s
- Chips and cracks
- Gaps, and
- Stains and discolouration’s
Consultation and Evaluation
All our dental services start with a comprehensive and meticulous examination, followed by a personalised assessment to determine which treatment works best for you.
Your goals and preferences are indispensable during this stage in determining our treatment plan. Also, depending on your conditions, we might require additional tests, such as X-rays or digital imaging.

Composites vs Porcelain Veneers
While veneers and composite bonding aim for similar cosmetic purposes, they have significant differences.
Lifespan
Veneers are a more durable solution, with almost 15 years of performance with the appropriate care. Composite bonding, on the other hand, can last up to 10 years with excellent home care and professional maintenance.
Budget and Accessibility
Composite bonding is usually a cost-effective solution for minor cosmetic issues. Veneers, on the contrary, offer higher durability but come with a higher price.
Enamel Preservation
One of the most prominent advantages of composite bonding is that it does not require wearing down your teeth during the procedure. Although veneers require minimal tooth preparation, they still require enamel wear for the final restoration.

How Much Does a Composite Bonding Cost?
Factors Influencing Cost
The amount of teeth requiring the treatment increases the final cost. Also, the price is heavily influenced by the quality of the materials and any additional procedure you might need before the cosmetic procedure.
Insurance and Financing Options
Typically, your insurance company covers a part of your treatment. However, we offer multiple financing options, loans, and payment plans to facilitate your dental treatment.
Composite Fillings Process
Composite fillings require a strict procedure protocol:
- Initial Consultation: includes a complete oral examination and complementary tests for your treatment plan.
- Tooth Preparation: we use a specialised compound to create microscopic pores to allow bonding.
- Composite bonding: our specialist uses a bonding agent to attach the composite to your teeth surface.
- Moulding: we transform the dental composite to match your natural teeth.
- Curing and Polishing: finally, we harden the composite with a specialised light and eliminate excesses with dental burs to polish the surface and provide a smooth result.
