Orthodontic treatment is about more than just straightening teeth—it’s about enhancing your natural smile and improving overall dental health. While Invisalign® effectively aligns teeth, some patients find they still need small refinements after treatment. This is where composite bonding comes in.
By combining Invisalign® with composite bonding, you can achieve a beautifully aligned, balanced and natural-looking smile without the need for more invasive procedures.
Why Choose Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is a discreet and comfortable orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligners to gently shift teeth into their ideal position over time. It’s an excellent choice for those looking to straighten their teeth without traditional metal braces.
Key Benefits of Invisalign® :
✔ Virtually invisible – The clear aligners are discreet, making them a popular choice for adults and professionals.
✔ Removable – Eat, drink and clean your teeth with ease.
✔ Comfortable fit – No metal brackets or wires to irritate your gums.
✔ Predictable results – Advanced technology maps out your smile transformation.
While Invisalign® is a fantastic solution for straightening teeth, some patients may still have minor imperfections such as uneven edges, small gaps, or chipped teeth. This is where composite bonding comes into play.
What Is Composite Bonding?
Composite bonding is a quick, painless and non-invasive cosmetic treatment that enhances the shape, size and appearance of teeth. A tooth-coloured resin is applied to the surface of the teeth to correct small imperfections and improve symmetry.
Key Benefits of Composite Bonding:
✔ Non-invasive – No drilling or removal of natural tooth structure.
✔ Instant results – Treatment can be completed in a single visit.
✔ Natural-looking – The composite material blends seamlessly with your teeth.
✔ Perfects your smile – Ideal for refining small imperfections after Invisalign®.
