Composite Veneers/Bonding

This treatment starts with meeting one of our Prosthodontists, Dr. Darrelle Power or Dr. Nina King, who will assess your suitability for treatment and discuss your treatment goals. Composite bonding isn’t for everyone – if your smile is crooked as a result of an over or underbite this treatment will not serve to correct it. Dr Power or Dr. Nina will discuss other available treatment options including orthodontics.

Using a shade guide Dr. Power or Dr. Nina will closely match the colour of your teeth to select the correct shade. She will then slightly etch the surface of the tooth to allow the composite to affix. Using a conditioning liquid, she will coat the top surface to bond the composite to your tooth. The putty-like resin will then be moulded and smoothed until the desired shape is achieved. The material is hardened using ultraviolet light. Finally, Dr. Power or Dr. Nina will do the finishing touches, trimming, shaping and polishing until it matches the sheen and lustre of your teeth before revealing your new smile.

Bonding may not last as long as porcelain veneers, but can offer a quick and relatively inexpensive alternative. Bonding does not resist stains as well as crowns or veneers and does not respond to whitening treatments, so you need to follow a healthy oral hygiene routine to keep your bonding looking bright and beautiful. At Pembroke Dental, not only can you expect exceptional care throughout your journey, but the comfort in knowing your bespoke treatment is performed by a leading cosmetic dental professional.

Dental bonding does take some artistic skill for optimal cosmetic results so it is reassuring to know that both Dr. Power and Dr. Nina have extensive training and experience in cosmetic procedures, giving you complete confidence that you are in the very best hands. From your very first visit with us, we will do everything to ensure your experience is comfortable, informative and stress-free. A smile makeover is as much about confidence as it is about the appearance. At Pembroke Dental we have the treatment solution for every concern, big and small from Custom Made Dentures to Full Smile Makeovers, Dental Implants, Crowns and Veneers.
