Transform Your Smile with Composite Bonding & Veneers in London
Cracks, chips, discolouration, and minor positional issues can all be confidence killers that make you hide your smile from the world.
About the treatment
Composite bonding and composite veneers are effective treatment options that deal with a range of dental problems - restoring your smile and how you feel about it.
How does composite bonding work?
You may not have heard of composite bonding, or you may not have noticed its results - because it looks so natural and subtle.
Composite bonding achieves excellent results in one of the most straightforward dental procedures available.
To begin, we’ll discuss the treatment goals you’d like to achieve. After a full assessment of your teeth, we can begin the procedure.
There’s no need for anaesthetic in most cases. There are no drills or injections.
We use composite resin to reconstruct your teeth. This is applied directly to your teeth and carefully shaped to blend naturally. The resin can cover damaged areas or be used to build up edges and close gaps.
Once we’re happy with the appearance, we use a special light to harden the resin - with instant results.

What are composite veneers?
Composite veneers are made from resin which we apply directly to your teeth. They can fix cracks and chips, close minor gaps, and improve the appearance of slightly misaligned teeth.
Because of the application process, composite veneers can achieve noticeable improvements in a short amount of time.
Richard Emery
I cannot fault the excellent treatment I experienced this afternoon at Tavistock Dental. Having arrived suffering with a pre-holiday dental crisis, I found all the staff kind, gentle and caring, the treatment facilities impressively hi-tech, and my treatment options clearly and calmly explained by Dr Chohan and Dr Patel, with helpful follow up advice. First-rate clinical opinions, treatment and service: I hope to return as a regular patient.
The composite veneer process
The placement process for composite veneers is simple and minimally invasive.
Before treatment, we assess your teeth and discuss the concerns you would like to address. This allows us to plan your treatment and explain how we can improve your smile.
Preparing your teeth takes very little time, and the full procedure is typically completed in a single appointment.
Why choose composite veneers?
With proper care, composite veneers can last for 5 to 10 years or longer before needing maintenance or replacement.
Patients value the natural look and feel of composite veneers. They are a budget-friendly option for improving your smile.
In some cases, composite veneers can be used as an alternative to orthodontic treatment for minor alignment concerns.
