What are Composite Resin Build Ups?

Composite Resin is tooth-coloured composite. During the procedure, this resin is carefully applied to the chipped teeth to strengthen and improve the structure.

Composite resin build ups are ideal for patients with:

  • Chipped and slightly fractured teeth
  • Teeth that have been worn out by grinding and ageing
  • Misshapen teeth that cause a person’s smile to look irregular
  • Severely stained or discoloured teeth that cannot be rectified using traditional whitening techniques.

Building up teeth with composite resin has the following benefits:

  • Significantly enhances the look of cracked and chipped teeth
  • Preserves the structure of a weakened tooth and restores function
  • Affordable and highly customised procedure that is tailored to suit your precise needs
  • Quick and painless cosmetic dental procedure that is minimally invasive and removes a small only a small amount of enamel

Composite Resin Build Up Procedure

One of our dental experts will conduct a thorough assessment to determine the best approach for your needs.

A very small volume of enamel is painlessly removed to create a rough surface for the composite resin to bond with.

Once the surface is prepared, composite resin is meticulously applied in layers and shaped to give you the results you want.

Each layer is carefully cured using a special light which hardens the material to guarantee strength and durability.

The last step is a professional tooth polish which helps the resin blend with the colour of your natural teeth.
