Composite bonding is utilised to correct minor imperfections including chips, cover permanent stains, straighten crooked teeth or close spaces between teeth.  Composite resin veneers can quickly and easily help you have a striking new smile.

Composite resin is a formulated plastic, tooth coloured filling material developed from a blend of silica, quartz and fine glass particles mixed to a paste-like consistency, which is able to be colour matched to your natural tooth shade.

The team at Sunshine Coast Smile Centre will discuss with you during your consultation appointment your aspirations and develop a tailored treatment plan.  Please feel free to ask any questions as we want you to be relaxed and confident that you have all the information you need relating to every aspect of your procedure.

The surface of your teeth receiving composite veneers will be made slightly rough using a formulated solution, which ensures a stronger bond between your tooth and composite resin.  Some minor reshaping of the teeth may also be required.

Placement of composite veneers requires an artistic hand as they are applied to the surface of your teeth in layers, hardened by a specially developed light and sculpted to the perfect shape.  Several layers may need to be placed, thereby blending seamlessly with your surrounding natural teeth.  The versatility and natural appearance of composite resin veneers is why they are becoming an increasingly popular option.

Placement of composite resin veneers will usually take between 10 – 20 minutes per tooth.  We will be able to advise you of an anticipated timeframe at your consultation appointment following an examination of the teeth you would like treated.

A continuous oral hygiene routine is essential for the longevity of your composite veneers.  Regular brushing, flossing and professional cleaning appointments with our team every six months will keep your new smile strong, bright and last for many years.
