Your five steps
How your bonding is designed and placed
- 1
Step 1
Consultation
We talk through what you would like to change, then assess your teeth, gums and bite to see whether composite bonding suits your case.
- 2
Step 2
3D digital scan
A precise 3D scan records your teeth and smile — no putty impressions unless your case genuinely needs one.
- 3
Step 3
Your smile is designed
Your proposed tooth shapes and proportions are designed digitally for your own smile. That design is then used to produce a bespoke laboratory-made transfer stent.
- 4
Step 4
Your bonding appointment
The bespoke stent is used to transfer the planned shapes in composite, and your clinician refines the teeth as your case requires.
- 5
Step 5
Finish, polish and review
Final contours, texture and polish are refined by hand, and we review the result with you and explain how to look after it.
A smile you saw designed first
Because the shapes are planned before treatment, you know the direction of your result before any composite is placed. Results still vary from person to person.
What can composite bonding change?
Composite bonding may be used to improve:
- Small gaps between teeth
- Worn or chipped edges
- Tooth shape and proportion
- Minor asymmetry
Not every concern is suitable for bonding. Suitability is assessed individually at consultation.
A conservative approach to changing your smile
Composite bonding can often improve tooth shape without the preparation associated with some indirect restorations. The exact amount of preparation, if any, depends on your individual teeth and treatment plan, and your dentist will explain it before you decide.

Frequently asked questions
Composite bonding uses a tooth-coloured composite material, shade-matched to your teeth, to reshape edges, repair chips or close small gaps. It is placed and finished directly on the tooth.
Rather than shaping every case entirely freehand on the day, we take a 3D scan, design your proposed tooth shapes digitally, and a laboratory produces a bespoke transfer stent from that design. Your clinician then uses the stent to place the composite before refining and polishing the result by hand — digital planning with laboratory-guided precision.
Composite bonding can often improve tooth shape without the preparation associated with some indirect restorations. The exact amount of preparation, if any, depends on your individual teeth and treatment plan, and your dentist will explain this before you decide.
Longevity varies with your bite, oral hygiene and habits such as grinding. Bonding may need repair, repolishing or replacement over time; your dentist will discuss what to expect in your case and the maintenance involved.
Yes. Composite can pick up staining and can chip, particularly with heavy biting forces, grinding or frequent staining foods and drinks. Regular hygiene visits and the aftercare advice we give you help protect the finish.
That depends on which teeth show when you smile and what you would like to change. Some patients only need one or two edges refined, others prefer a wider set of teeth designed together. We will show you what your design covers before you commit.
Edge bonding starts from £300 per tooth and full composite veneers from £400 per tooth. Multi-tooth pricing is available: 2 teeth of edge bonding for £500, and more than 2 composite veneers at £300 per tooth. Cases of four teeth or more include free whitening (worth £485). Your final price is confirmed in writing after your assessment. 0% finance is available, subject to status.
