Composite bonding

A non-invasive use of tooth-coloured filling material to lengthen or re-shape the front teeth.

Bonding uses a composite resin to close spaces, change the colour of the teeth, mask any discolorations, repair chips, change the size or shape of teeth, and give crooked or uneven teeth a straight-looking appearance.

Cosmetic bonding can be used on a single tooth or transform an entire smile. It is a simple technique that allows the white filling material to bond to the natural tooth, usually without the need to prepare/shape the tooth and is completed in one short visit. Another advantage of this technique is that an anaesthetic is not normally required, allowing you to smile with confidence, immediately. An artistic eye is required in order to produce natural seamless results and the dental team at St Anne's Dental Practice have trained extensively in this procedure, transforming many smiles.

After cosmetic bonding, your new smile should last several years depending on your lifestyle. Smoking, drinking or using your teeth as tools, may reduce the life expectancy of the bonding and you may need to get your teeth polished once a year as the bonding material stains more readily than natural teeth.

Sunita Sahota was excellent. She identified the likely reason for my plaque deposits and removed them in preparation for my visit to the hygienist in a few weeks time. She also praised the dental work of my previous dentist who is based in Eastbourne. Sunita and her nurse (sorry I missed her name) were both attentive and highly professional. Another bonus is that St Anne's is a five minute walk from my home!

Friendly professional service. Treated like a friend rather than a patient. Always welcomed and feel valued.

Everyone very friendly, quick and efficient but not rushed.

Very detailed descriptions given by the hygienist of the work she was carrying out, and thorough checks on my own dental care approach with positive suggestions. She also highlighted a potential issue requiring ongoing care not previously mentioned.

I was 5 minutes late for my appointment with Anna the hygienist, due to road works, but she saw me straight away and explained the airflow treatment, which I went for. She was gentle, but thorough, and I was very pleased with the result. I then saw Adam, who was very thorough as usual. All together a far better experience than with the previous hygienist (who has now left the practice).

I felt my questions were well answered and I wasn't rushed. I was asked how I was feeling throughout the procedure. Each part of the treatment was explained I was given options about my future treatment.

Jane the receptionist provided fantastic services by fitting me in on a cancelled appointment as there was no available appointments at the time of my enquire. This has happened a number of time and they have always managed to get me a last minute appointment. Fantastic service from both Adam and Anna every time I see them.

I have been coming to the St Annes Practice since the 1970's and have seen over the years many changes, all I can say for the better as more and more up to date equipment and dedicated and experienced staff have come along the way. I now feel that you have got it just right as there are staff to cover all needs. The reception teem are just lovely and make all the difference if you happen to be a bit nervous about the treatment you are about to receive. I have just introduced a new client my dear friend who is in her early nineties and she was very, very impressed. Thank you all for your good work.
