Composite Bonding

SmileFast is the ground-breaking new development in smile design and the delivery of smile makeovers at Coulsdon Dental Clinic. Whether you are looking for a small enhancement to improve your smile or a full cosmetic transformation, SmileFast revolutionary technology can bring you realistic results, creating the smile of your dreams!

SmileFast helps you to quickly visualise your planned new smile, understand the journey and then experience the smile-changing results. By cutting out most of the time-consuming preliminary stages for your dentist.

For 1 -2 teeth, Composite Bonding involves 4 simple steps and is completed in one single appointment.

1. Shade Matching – Resin material matching your natural tooth colour is identified
2. Without sacrificing any tooth surface, the resin is applied to your teeth
3. Our highly skilled dentist then gives shape to the resin to address any chipped teeth or gaps between the front teeth
4. The resin is then allowed to set leaving you with a smile that is entirely natural and without any tooth surface loss

For anything more than 2 teeth, we would recommend SmileFast.

SmileFast is the ground-breaking new development in Smile Design and the Provision of Smile Makeovers. The amazing new system brings together the three essential elements of modern cosmetic dentistry, which are orthodontics braces, ceramic and composite veneers.

Custom-designed – composite veneer smile makeover for the front 6 teeth in just one application.

It is the safest and most affordable way to fix the gap between your teeth. We use a tooth coloured material (resin) to shape and sculpt around your tooth and bond it to close the gap between your teeth.

We almost always recommend composite bonding to people having Invisalign® to overcome any blemishes on their teeth and to shape their teeth after teeth straightening.

Composite bonding lasts as least 5 years, but does not last as long as veneers. However, the cost effectiveness of this treatment and the fact that it can be re-done without damaging teeth makes it a very popular option.

No, on its own it does not hurt. Generally, the area of the tooth that is being worked upon is not sensitive so you won’t feel any pain.

Case selection is crucial for composite bonding. Our Private dentist will carry out a thorough examination of your oral health and eating habits before recommending any treatment. With that said, generally, anybody with a reasonably good oral health can benefit from composite bonding. If you are looking to get rid of some imperfections in teeth like small chips, slight changes to the shape of your teeth or discolouration, then composite bonding may be the correct treatment for you.

This treatment is not available on the NHS as its cosmetic treatment. Its best to ask our private dentist as they offer cosmetic bonding for 1-2 teeth from £300 per tooth and SmileFast is from £1800. We offer 0% finance options Please ask the treatment coordinator for further details.
