Can anyone have cosmetic bonding?

The dentist will take various factors into account before deciding whether or not to carry out this treatment. As long as you are in good health, a non-smoker, have healthy teeth and gums and have realistic expectations then you will be considered for this procedure.

Note: cosmetic bonding is ideal for those patients who have minor problems with their teeth. If you have more serious problems such as structural damage then a dental veneer or another type of procedure may be more appropriate.

If you have very large cavities in your teeth then consider CEREC treatment instead. The reason for this is that composite bonding does not provide a strong enough structure over a large area.
