Dental Bonding

A fast, affordable way to fix chipped, short or slightly crooked teeth — using tooth-coloured resin sculpted directly onto the tooth in a single visit.

  • Usually completed in one visit
  • No anaesthetic needed for most cases
  • Cheaper than veneers or crowns
  • Easily repaired if chipped

What dental bonding can fix

  • Chipped teeth — we replace the missing piece with resin that matches your enamel
  • Short or worn teeth — building them up to match the neighbours
  • Small gaps — closing the space between two teeth without orthodontics
  • Mild misalignment — "adding to" the front of a slightly twisted tooth to even up the row
  • Tooth-coloured fillings — for cavities that need a discreet repair

How long does it take?

Most bonding cases are done in under an hour. If you need several teeth reshaped, we might split it across more than one visit. Either way, you walk out the same day with the final result.

Aftercare

For the first 48 hours, avoid coffee, tea, cigarette smoke, red wine and anything else that could stain the still-curing resin. After that, brush and floss as normal — bonding looks after itself with regular cleaning.

Bonding vs veneers

Bonding is cheaper, quicker and reversible — perfect for small fixes. Veneers are stronger, more stain-resistant, and last much longer — better for larger smile makeovers. Composite resin is also softer than porcelain, so it can chip over time. We're happy to talk through which is right for your situation. More on veneers.
