Bonded Dentistry

Transform your smile quickly, safely and affordably.

Cosmetic bonding is one of the most popular
treatments here at Shirland Dental Practice.

This simple treatment can transform your smile by fixing misaligned, cracked, worn or discoloured teeth. A strong white composite material is used to improve the shape of the affected teeth. The process involves a high level of artistic skill and the correct amount and colour of dental composite.

Cosmetic bonding is an alternative to porcelain veneers and
is the least invasive of all cosmetic dental procedures.

Our Principal Dentist, Dr Hamssa Mansour, has the skills required for intricate veneering and tooth sculpting and has extensive experience in cosmetic bonding.

Benefits of Cosmetic Bonding

  • Minimally invasive (it does not reduce the tooth’s original structure).
  • Immediate results (can usually be completed in one visit).
  • Relatively inexpensive and easily repairable.
  • Very natural in appearance.
  • Pain free (no drilling needed).
  • We guarantee all cosmetic bonding for 3 years.

What will happen at my appointment?

Your teeth do not normally need to be prepared and anaesthetic is not usually necessary.

We start by selecting the colour of the composite resin to be used. The tooth surface is then lightly etched which helps the composite resin to bond to the tooth. Next, the resin is placed on the tooth and your dentist sculpts the resin to the desired shape. It is then treated with ultraviolet light that activates the bonding. It usually takes about an hour to complete the procedure.

How long will cosmetic bonding last?

Many people can go for ten or fifteen years and have the bonding look as good as the day it was put in. On the other hand, some people will get staining on the margins of the bonding after a few years and will need some touch-up work.

Dental bonding is not as strong as your own natural tooth. Biting your fingernails or biting on hard foods and substances can chip the bonding. How long it actually lasts depends on how well you look after your cosmetic bonding and your other teeth. Regular dental check-ups will help.

We love our patients

“I have a phobia of Dentists having not gone for 33 years. Dr Mansour really put my mind at rest and gave good advice. Amazingly my teeth are in good shape and only hygienist appointment required and a few small bits - No fillings. I'm not really into writing reviews and this is my first one on google but I highly recommend Shirland Dental Practice.”

Chris P (Google Review)

“Highly recommend this practice. Dr Mansour has a wonderful chair-side manner and is always reassuring and considerate. As someone who dreaded visiting the dentist for years, I can recommend her to any of my fellow dental-phobics. She does excellent work but it's her professionalism and warmth that sets her apart.”

Linus B (Google Review)

“Honestly the best dental practice I have ever been to. Everyone was so friendly and talked me through the procedures and my xrays. I would be happy to go back weekly if that wasn't so weird (and thankfully not necessary).”

Emma H (Google Review)

“Open at weekends! The staff and location are fantastic. The most impressive dental service in the area.”

Darragh (Google Review)

“An honest and caring dentist! A welcome change from my previous experience. Everything was explained clearly before work was done and the cost was outlined also. I would recommend anyone come here as they are very friendly. Thank you Hamssa!”
