Frequently asked questions
How long does composite bonding last?
On average, composite bonding lasts between 5 to 10 years with proper care. Longevity varies with dentist expertise, oral hygiene, and eating and parafunctional habits. Regular check-ups, good oral hygiene, avoiding biting hard objects and habits like nail biting all help prolong the lifespan of bonded teeth.
Is composite bonding ideal for you?
Suitability depends on individual factors our dentists will assess, including tooth location (bonding works best for upper anterior teeth; porcelain is the material of choice for lower-jaw veneers) and teeth alignment (minor misalignments can be effectively corrected, but severe crowding or crossbites are a contraindication).
