Patient journey

1. Your consultation

Our dentist will use cutting-edge technology to take an intra-oral digital scan, capturing every detail of your mouth. These images, along with the photos, will be sent to a skilled smile designer. When the image comes back, you’ll be offered a ‘smile test drive’ at your ‘try smile’ appointment.

Patient journey

2. Your treatment

During your final fit appointment, the procedure will be completed and you’ll walk out with a new smile makeover.

Patient journey

3. Aftercare

Avoid staining foods and drinks for the first 48 hours, and brush gently with a non-abrasive toothpaste. Regular dental check-ups going forwards are essential to ensure your bonding stays in top condition.

Same Day Smile FAQs

  • This treatment involves using porcelain veneers, lab-milled composite veneers, or composite bonding to transform your smile. These procedures can painlessly address various dental issues, including chipped or cracked teeth, gaps between teeth, and discolouration. The veneer or bonding material is carefully applied, shaped, and polished to blend seamlessly with your teeth, giving you a beautiful new smile in one visit. You’ll discuss with our dentists which is the best material option for you when you visit us for your consultation.

    The time required for composite bonding or veneers can vary depending on the number of teeth being treated and the complexity of the case. However, in many cases, composite bonding or veneers can be completed in a single visit, often taking just 30 to 60 minutes per tooth.

  • Following your consultation, and after the lab has come back with a Cad/Cam digital design, you’ll be offered a ‘Try smile’ appointment. This appointment will involve a ‘smile test drive’ with temporary material. You’ll see the results as a ‘try smile’. After this, if any adjustments need to be made, this can be communicated, and tweaks can be made for the final fit appointment.

  • Composite bonding uses a tooth-coloured resin, from the same family of materials used for white fillings, to reshape and rebuild teeth. Your dentist applies it in thin layers directly onto the tooth and sculpts it by hand to improve the shape, close a small gap, or cover a chip or stain, then polishes it to a natural finish. Because little or no enamel is removed, it is usually a comfortable procedure that often needs no anaesthetic, though you may notice mild sensitivity for a day or two afterwards.

  • Lab-milled composite veneers are thin shells of composite made for you in a dental laboratory, rather than sculpted directly onto the tooth in the chair. They are digitally designed from your scans and produced with bespoke insertion trays, which help give a smooth, consistent and precise fit across your smile. Like composite bonding, the treatment is minimally invasive and usually needs little or no enamel removed, so an anaesthetic is often not required. The trade-off for that laboratory precision is time, since the design and fabrication stage means the treatment runs across more than one appointment rather than a single sitting.

  • Yes. Composite bonding and veneers tend to last for around 5-10 years. But porcelain veneers can last for around 15 years. They’re worth the cost, and you’ll need fewer dental visits.

    Additional benefits include the fact that they’re not susceptible to discolouration, unlike composite bonding, meaning you don’t have to worry about losing that shiny white colour. They’re also less likely to chip than composite materials, but you still need to care for them.

    We also offer traditional composite bonding here at the High St Dental Care practice and have a couple of dentists who create first-class, natural-looking teeth enhancements, which have resulted in some impressive smile transformations.

  • Composite bonding and veneers are versatile treatments that can address many cosmetic dental issues. They’re particularly effective for:

    -Repairing chipped or cracked teeth

    -Closing small gaps between teeth

    -Improving the shape or length of teeth

    -Covering discolouration or stains

    For more severe dental problems or when a more durable, long-term solution is needed, our dentist may recommend alternative treatments such as crowns. You’ll have this discussion with him when you have your pre-treatment consultation.

“Never been happier!”

“After being told by my previous dentist (at another practice) that I couldn’t improve my smile without it looking “odd”, I was pleasantly surprised when Nakul gave me lots of options to choose from. I’ve just finished a course of whitening, ICON treatment and composite bonding and have never been happier with my smile! I’ve always been self-conscious of the gaps between my teeth, but not now! Nakul explained every step of the treatment plan thoroughly and helped set my expectations for what we could achieve, with my choices of treatment. However, the results have exceeding my expectations, so thank you Nakul and Demi.”
