Composite bonding is a popular cosmetic dental treatment that helps improve the look of your teeth by fixing chips, gaps and discolouration using composite resin bonding. While composite bonding teeth can give you a natural and flawless smile, taking care of them properly is essential for ensuring its longevity. 

At Sunna Dental, we want to help you keep your smile looking its best. Follow these easy tips to maintain your bonding teeth and enjoy long-lasting results.

What is Composite Bonding?

Composite bonding, is a quick and non-invasive procedure where tooth-coloured composite resin is applied to your teeth to improve their shape, size and colour. It’s a great choice for anyone looking for an affordable and less invasive alternative to veneers or crowns.

Top Tips for Maintaining Your Composite Bonding

1. Brush and Floss Daily

Good oral hygiene is essential for keeping your composite teeth bonding looking great. Here’s what to do:

  • Brush twice a day with a non-abrasive toothpaste and soft bristled toothbrush 
  • Floss daily to prevent plaque build-up around bonding teeth.
  • Use an alcohol-free mouthwash to protect your oral health.

2. Avoid Foods and Drinks That Stain

Composite resin bonding can stain over time, so be mindful of what you eat and drink. Limit your intake of:

  • Coffee, tea and red wine
  • Dark berries
  • Curry and soy sauce
  • Foods with artificial colouring 

If you consume these, rinse your mouth with water or brush your teeth soon after to help prevent stains.

4. Be Careful with Your Teeth

While composite bonding is strong, it’s not as tough as your natural teeth. To prevent damages and wearing the teeth down:

  • Avoid biting hard foods like ice, nuts, or hard sweets.
  • Never use your teeth to open bottles or packaging.
  • If you grind your teeth, consider using a night guard to protect them.

3. Stop Smoking

  • Smoking can cause your bonding teeth to stain and can reduce how long they last. If you have had teeth composite bonding, quitting smoking will help keep your smile bright and healthy.
