Diamond Dental Care provides composite bonding at our Sippy Downs clinic. Composite bonding involves applying tooth-coloured resin to teeth to modify their colour, shape, or size. Results vary significantly between individuals. Contact us to discuss whether this treatment is suitable for you.

What Is Composite Bonding?

Composite bonding uses tooth-coloured plastic material (composite resin) applied to teeth. This may be used to repair chipped teeth, close small gaps, or improve tooth appearance.

Composite bonding is typically less expensive than porcelain crowns or veneers, though requires more frequent maintenance.

Important Information

Treatment Considerations:

• Results vary significantly between individuals
• Can often be completed in one appointment (depending on complexity)
• Your dentist will assess your suitability during consultation

Limitations:

• Requires more maintenance than porcelain restorations
• May stain over time (coffee, tea, wine, tobacco)
• Less durable than porcelain—may chip or wear
• Typically needs replacement every 5-10 years
• May not suit extensive reconstruction or heavy bite forces

Potential Risks:

• Tooth sensitivity following treatment
• Bonding may chip, crack, or separate from tooth
• Colour mismatch over time
• Unsatisfactory aesthetic results
• Need for future repairs or replacement

Your dentist will discuss specific risks and outcomes during consultation.
