Composite Bonding and Veneers
Composite bonding and veneers are both cosmetic dental procedures used to enhance the appearance of teeth. While they share some similarities, there are also key differences between the two.
Composite Bonding and Veneers
If you're looking for a way to improve the appearance of your smile, composite bonding and veneers are two options that can help. Both procedures are minimally invasive and can be completed in a single visit to your dentist.
​
Composite bonding is a cosmetic dentistry procedure that uses a tooth-coloured material to repair or enhance the appearance of teeth. Composite bonding can be used to fill in chips, gaps, or cracks, or to change the shape or colour of teeth.
​
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front of teeth to improve their appearance. Veneers can be used to cover chips, cracks, stains, or discolouration, or to change the shape, size, or alignment of teeth.
​
Here are some of the benefits of composite bonding and veneers:
​
•Minimally invasive: Composite bonding and veneers are both
minimally invasive procedures that do not require any cutting or
drilling of teeth.
​
• Quick and easy: Composite bonding and veneers can be completed in a single visit to your dentist.
​
• Natural-looking: Composite bonding and veneers can be made to match the colour and shape of your natural teeth, so they will look very natural.
​
• Durable: Composite bonding and veneers are both durable and can last for many years with proper care.
Here are some additional details about composite bonding and veneers:
​
• Composite bonding: The cost of composite bonding varies depending on the extent of the work needed. However, it is generally a more affordable option than veneers.
​
• Veneers: The cost of veneers varies depending on the number of teeth that need to be covered and the type of material used. However, veneers are generally more expensive than composite bonding.
​
• Composite bonding and veneers: Both composite bonding and veneers are covered by most dental insurance plans. However, the specific coverage may vary depending on your plan.
