    If suitable, we’ll outline your options and next steps, tailored to your goals.

Subtle enhancement, natural-looking detail

Composite bonding is often chosen for a focused change: a small shape adjustment, an edge that catches your eye or a smile that feels a little more balanced. I begin by listening to what you see and what you want to keep exactly as it is.

What we’ll explore

Your priorities

Shape, proportion, colour, texture and how the result should look when you speak and smile.

A conservative approach

Whether bonding, whitening, orthodontic care or no treatment best fits the change you want to make.

We will discuss suitability, shade selection, how the material is cared for and the ways it can change over time. If treatment is considered, I will explain the stages and what can be adjusted before you commit.

Questions to bring

Ask about durability, polishing, repair, maintenance, alternatives and how your bite or habits may affect the result.

Clinical note: Before-and-after images are illustrative and are not a promise of a particular result. Your own plan follows an individual assessment.

Your next step

Bring the detail you would like to improve. We can discuss a measured, personal plan that keeps your natural smile in view.

Frequently asked questions
How is bonding suitability assessed?

We look at the tooth or teeth you want to change, your bite, gum health, habits and the result you have in mind. This helps us compare bonding with other options.

Can composite bonding be repaired?

Small chips or changes can sometimes be repaired or polished, although the best approach depends on the material, tooth and cause. We will explain this during your assessment.

How should I care for bonded teeth?

Brush and clean between your teeth as advised, attend reviews and avoid using teeth as tools. Personalised care guidance helps protect the finish and your natural teeth.
