Cosmetic Bonding.
Cosmetic bonding involves applying a tooth-coloured resin to the surface of your teeth. It’s a more conservative option than veneers but can effectively fix many of the same issues. Bonding is a quick, non-invasive procedure that can be done in one visit. It’s often used to:
-
Repair chips or cracks: The resin is sculpted and polished to match the surrounding teeth.
-
Cover discoloured areas: Improving the appearance of teeth that are stained or discoloured.
-
Close small gaps: Filling in minor spaces between teeth.
-
Reshape teeth: Subtly altering the shape for a more uniform look.
Bonding is a more affordable option than veneers and can provide instant results, although the material is less durable and may require touch-ups over time.
Cosmetic treatments are generally considered elective and may not be covered by health insurance. However, some procedures with functional benefits, such as crowns or Invisalign, may qualify for partial coverage.
Veneers offer a more durable, long-lasting solution for improving the appearance of your teeth. Bonding is a more affordable and quicker alternative but may require more maintenance over time.
Costs vary depending on the treatment and the complexity of the case. We provide a personalised treatment plan with detailed cost information during your consultation.
Frequently Asked Questions.
Veneers.
Veneers are thin, custom-made porcelain shells that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth. They are designed to improve the colour, shape, size, or alignment of your teeth, creating a flawless, natural-looking smile. Veneers are ideal for addressing:
-
Stained or discoloured teeth: Perfect for teeth that don’t respond well to whitening treatments.
-
Chipped or broken teeth: Covering the damaged area for a seamless look.
-
Gaps between teeth: Closing spaces to create an even, symmetrical smile.
-
Misshapen or uneven teeth: Correcting the size and shape for a more balanced appearance.
Veneers are durable, long-lasting, and highly resistant to staining, offering a permanent solution to enhance your smile.
