Composite (White) bonding also called dental bonding and tooth bonding is used for a variety of purposes including filling cavities with white fillings, repairing broken or chipped or fractured teeth, closing gaps between teeth, reshaping, and improving the overall look of a tooth or teeth. It is particularly effective for whitening discoloured teeth. Bonding uses composite resins or porcelain/composite veneers can be used to cover the surface of stained teeth and give a nice, even appearance to broken or misshapen teeth. Composite material is a tooth coloured, mouldable material with a paste-like consistency, which uses a strong light source to set the material. Dental composite bonding is a popular choice for fillings because the material can match the shade of your own natural teeth.

Twice a Year is Best. Twice a Year for a Check-Up and Twice a Year for a Professional Clean. You may need to visit more often if you are susceptible to plaque/tartar build up. Dr. David or Your Professional Hygienist will advise you. We will forward book your appointments and gently remind you of them to help you to keep your oral health maintenance routine fitting in with your schedule. Dr. Davids twice yearly Check-Ups will become preventative Check-Ups as potential problems can be Identified, Monitored and Treated. Your maintenance cleans will remove the "stuff" that builds up between your Professional Cleans and difficult to remove during your daily health routine. We will be delighted to advise on how to be Eco Aware within your Dental Care and available for any questions or concerns you may have through our various communication platforms.

Dr. David will conduct a detailed check-up of your teeth, gums, and mouth which, may include x-ray and will include an oral cancer check. We will ask about your general health, teeth, mouth, and gums and identify health habits which may be causing oral health problems. We identify the root cause of any pain which you may be experiencing and suggest appropriate treatments e.g., an untreated cavity. We suggest preventative treatments for potential problems e.g., molar decay. We want to hear what you think about your teeth. What niggles you about them e.g., you might want to restore a chipped tooth or restore a bright white smile. We discuss an overall treatment plan and costs to address both the immediate issues, treat potential problems and any restorative treatments to get rid of those niggles. Some of the treatments might be done on the day and some scheduled. We phone you with gentle reminders of your schedule and always look forward to seeing you.

After your clean you will leave Vard Dental with your teeth feeling lovely and smooth and clean. A professional clean will remove plaque and tartar build-up which along with a good oral health routine should minimise the damage which plaque can cause. The professional cleaning of teeth is sometimes referred to as prophylaxis (or prophy for short). It's a Greek word which mean "to prevent beforehand" so in this case, apart from lovely smooth clean teeth you are also helping yourself to prevent gum disease. Twice a year is best to remove plaque (soft sticky bacteria infested film) or tartar (brown/black calcium deposits) build-up which if left untreated over a long period of time it may be necessary to have advanced gum treatment/ deep clean. Our cleaning aim is to get you to the stage of only requiring routine twice a year treatment through providing you with advice, tips and techniques of good oral, Eco aware hygiene care in an award winning, friendly environment.
