COMPOSITE BONDING
Whether your teeth are discoloured, decayed, malformed or you don’t like the spaces between your teeth, veneer is the solution which is way conservative and you can have immediate results. We offer multiple kinds of veneers, composite veneers or composite bonding is one of them too.
Composite bonding, cosmetic bonding or composite veneering is a treatment where your dentist adds a thin layer of special coloured resin to your teeth to improve their appearance. It is absolutely pain free, no anaesthesia is needed and there is no permanent alteration to the natural tooth structure, as either no drilling or minor drilling is done.
