Composite Bonding is a single-visit procedure capable of producing incredible results. This procedure, also known as Cosmetic Bonding, is an ideal option for anyone who has minor aesthetic flaws, such as small gaps between the teeth, chipped or worn edges. We can also create Composite Veneers that can totally transform the shape of the tooth and enhance your smile
Once the composite has been applied and designed, it is set using a curing light. Any final adjustments are made once the composite is firm and then you can see your new smile.
