Composite Bonding in Winchmore Hill
Composite bonding uses tooth-coloured resin applied directly to the tooth to repair or alter its visible shape.
It may be suitable for selected chips, worn edges, small spaces or teeth with uneven proportions.
At Fenton Dental Studio, composite bonding is available from £350 following an assessment of your teeth, gums and bite.
What can composite bonding help with?
Bonding may be considered for:
- Small chips
- Worn tooth edges
- Minor gaps
- Uneven tooth shape
- Teeth that appear disproportionately small
- Selected surface imperfections
It does not physically move teeth. Where alignment is the principal concern, Invisalign or Spark treatment may be more appropriate.

FAQs
How much does composite bonding cost?
Composite bonding at Fenton Dental Studio starts from £350. Your final fee depends on the number of teeth and treatment required.
Does composite bonding damage teeth?
Bonding can often be carried out conservatively, but the exact preparation required depends on the individual tooth and proposed change. Your dentist will explain this before treatment.
How long does bonding last?
There is no guaranteed lifespan. Composite can stain, chip or wear and may require polishing, repair or replacement over time.
Can composite bonding close gaps?
It can be suitable for some small spaces. Larger gaps or alignment problems may be better addressed orthodontically.
Can composite bonding whiten my teeth?
No. Composite changes tooth shape rather than whitening natural enamel. Whitening can be considered separately.
Does composite change colour with whitening?
Existing composite does not whiten in the same way as natural tooth enamel. This is one reason whitening may sometimes be planned before bonding.
Can bonding be repaired?
In many cases damaged composite can be repaired or modified rather than completely replaced, depending on its condition.
