Overview
Composite bonding applies tooth-coloured resin directly to your teeth to repair chips, close small gaps and reshape edges. It is a fast, conservative cosmetic treatment, usually completed in a single visit with little or no drilling.
Benefits
- Fixes chips, gaps and shape in one visit
- Little to no removal of natural tooth
- Painless, often without anaesthetic
- An affordable cosmetic improvement
Who is this treatment for?
Usually suitable
- Small chips, narrow gaps, worn edges, or reshaping one or two teeth
- Patients who want the most conservative option, with little or no tooth removed
- Younger patients for whom preserving enamel matters more than maximum longevity
Needs assessment first
- Heavy coffee, tea or tobacco habits, since composite picks up stain far faster than porcelain
- Grinding, clenching or an edge-to-edge bite, where a bonded edge fractures again and again
- A wide colour change or a genuine alignment problem, where veneers or orthodontics is the honest answer
Final suitability is decided by your consultant after examination and imaging in Istanbul.

Risks and an honest expectation
Composite is softer than enamel and porcelain: it stains, loses its gloss, chips at the edges and usually needs repair or renewal every 4–8 years. Plaque gathers at the join and decay can start underneath if flossing is neglected. On a bite that takes heavy load, bonded edges fracture repeatedly and porcelain becomes the better answer. Your bite is checked before the material goes on, the surface is polished and re-polished at each annual visit, and a night guard is offered where grinding is found.
