A Quick, Gentle Way to Restore Your Natural Smile
Is Dental Bonding Right for You?
- Minor Chips
You may benefit from dental bonding if your teeth have small chips from biting hard foods. This treatment reshapes chipped areas, improving the appearance of your teeth while preserving most of your natural tooth structure.
- Tooth Discolourations
Dental bonding covers areas of discolouration that remain visible after whitening. Dentists apply a tooth-coloured resin to blend seamlessly. This option is suitable for individuals with stains affecting one or more front teeth.
- Small Gaps
Dental bonding helps fill small gaps between teeth. It offers a conservative option for addressing minor gaps without the need for braces. Dentists carefully apply resin to reshape teeth and enhance your overall smile.
- Uneven
Edges
If you have slightly uneven teeth, bonding can reshape them using a tooth-coloured resin that blends naturally with your smile. It offers a non-invasive way to enhance shape and achieve a more balanced look.

Dental bonding addresses minor cracked or slightly gapped teeth in just one visit. It avoids lengthy procedures and complex treatments. Many patients can complete their dental bonding with minimal impact on their daily routine.

A Look Inside Your Dental Bonding Experience at Eversmile Dental
We'll listen to your concerns and carefully examine your teeth and gums. Our team may take photos or scans to understand your smile better and assess the condition of each tooth. You’ll discuss what’s bothering you and explore whether dental bonding is a suitable option for your specific needs. There’s no pressure to decide immediately, and you’re welcome to ask questions at any time during your visit.
Your dentist holds a shade guide next to your teeth and selects a resin colour that closely matches your enamel. You can preview the selected shade before application to check that it closely matches the colour of your natural teeth. This careful matching helps the bonded area blend seamlessly with nearby teeth. Some people notice the precision of the process, resulting in a balanced outcome that appears natural.
We'll gently roughen the tooth surface using a dental tool to help the resin bond properly. A conditioning liquid is carefully applied, creating a surface that allows the resin to attach more effectively. This preparation process is quick, painless, and doesn’t involve drilling or removing any part of your natural tooth. You won’t need anaesthetic, and your tooth will be ready for bonding within just a few minutes. .
Your dentist applies a tooth-coloured resin in layers, carefully building it up to restore the natural shape. Each layer is sculpted to match your existing teeth, using dental tools for detailed and precise contouring. This process relies on technical experience and refined shaping skills to create a smooth, balanced, and natural appearance. You can sit back and relax while your dentist works patiently to enhance your smile’s look.
A special light hardens the resin layer by layer, creating a strong bond without affecting nearby healthy tooth structures. Your dentist carefully polishes the surface to blend with the surrounding enamel, leaving a smooth and natural finish. They perform a bite check to confirm your comfort and make any necessary adjustments during the appointment. Our team will prioritise your comfort and complete any final adjustments before you leave.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does dental bonding work?
Eversmile dental bonding is a straightforward cosmetic procedure. When appropriately planned and applied, bonding is used to enhance the appearance of minor flaws, like chips, stains, or irregular shapes. However, results vary depending on factors such as tooth structure and oral habits. Below is how the process works, step by step:
- Thorough Assessment and Personalised Planning:
Your dentist will examine your teeth and discuss your cosmetic concerns. We will confirm if bonding is suitable for your dental needs and explain what you can expect from the procedure. - Careful Tooth Surface Preparation:
To help the bonding material adhere properly, we gently roughen the tooth’s surface. A conditioning liquid is also applied to create a stronger bond between your tooth and the resin. - Precise Application of Tooth-Coloured Resin:
We apply a tooth-coloured resin material to the prepared area. This resin is carefully matched to your natural tooth colour for a seamless appearance. - Shaping and Sculpting for Natural Results:
The resin is shaped and moulded to address the chip, gap, or uneven area. This step requires attention to detail to achieve a natural match with your surrounding teeth. - Hardening the Bond:
Once the resin is shaped, a special light is used to harden the material. This process securely bonds the resin to your tooth in just a few minutes. - Finishing Touches with Polishing and Refinement:
The bonded tooth is polished until it matches the natural shine of your enamel. This final step smooths the surface and enhances the tooth’s appearance.
Cosmetic dental bonding is often completed in a single visit, depending on the number of teeth requiring treatment. The treatment time may vary if the bonding involves multiple teeth or more detailed cosmetic adjustments. If you’d like to determine if dental bonding is suitable for your needs, we’re here to help.
Is dental bonding painful?
At Eversmile Dental, we understand that many patients worry about discomfort during treatments. Dental bonding is a gentle and non-invasive procedure that most people find very manageable. Here’s what you can expect before, during, and after dental bonding:
- Before the Procedure:
- Dental bonding does not require local anaesthesia because it involves little to no removal of your natural tooth.
- We will gently roughen the tooth surface to help the bonding material stick, but this step is not painful.
- Your dentist will discuss the process with you so you know exactly what to expect beforehand.
- Many individuals tolerate this preparation phase well, as it involves minimal alteration to the tooth surface. However, sensitivity levels can vary depending on individual cases.
- During the Procedure:
- Applying the tooth-coloured resin is a smooth and gentle process that does not involve drilling.
- You might feel slight pressure while the dentist shapes and smooths the material, but it shouldn’t be painful.
- A special light is used to harden the resin, which causes no discomfort at all.
- For most individuals, dental bonding is considered a low-discomfort procedure, as it does not involve invasive techniques. However, each person’s experience may vary.
- After the Procedure:
- In many cases, patients can return to their normal activities immediately after treatment. However, some individuals may experience temporary sensitivity, which usually subsides within a few days.
- Some teeth might feel slightly sensitive to hot or cold for a day or two, but this usually subsides quickly.
- If you experience any discomfort after the procedure, please contact our team to arrange a review and adjustment.
- Maintaining good oral hygiene will help your bonding last and keep your smile looking fresh.
Dental bonding is considered a comfortable treatment for addressing minor cosmetic concerns. However, individual comfort levels and sensitivity can vary.
How long does dental bonding last?
Dental bonding is a popular choice for addressing small cosmetic concerns, but its lifespan depends on several factors. Here’s what you should know about how long dental bonding lasts:
- Average Lifespan:
Dental bonding typically lasts between 3 and 10 years, depending on individual factors like oral hygiene and lifestyle habits. Longevity varies, so regular dental checkups are important to monitor and maintain results. - Daily Habits Influence Longevity:
Brushing, flossing, and avoiding habits like nail-biting or chewing pens can help extend the lifespan. - Diet and Lifestyle Play a Role:
Frequent exposure to staining foods, such as coffee and red wine, or smoking may cause bonded areas to discolour. - Regular Dental Checkups Help Maintain Results:
Routine visits allow us to check the bonded areas and address any minor touch-ups before more significant issues arise. - Bonding is Durable:
Bonding materials are strong, but they can wear down or chip over time, especially on teeth used for heavy biting.
With proper care and regular checkups, dental bonding can be a long-lasting way to improve your smile. Our team will provide tailored advice to help you maintain your results for as long as possible. If you’re seeking dental bonding in Bunbury, contact our friendly team.
What are the disadvantages of dental bonding?
Dental bonding is a popular choice for addressing minor cosmetic flaws, but like any treatment, it has its limitations. Below are important factors to consider before choosing this treatment:
- Not as Strong as Other Options:
Bonding materials are durable but can chip or break more easily than porcelain veneers or crowns. - May Stain Over Time:
Composite resin bonding can pick up stains from coffee, tea, wine, or tobacco more quickly than natural enamel or porcelain. - Shorter Lifespan Compared to Veneers:
Bonding usually lasts between 3-10 years, which is less than the lifespan of porcelain alternatives. - Not Ideal for Major Restorations:
Dental bonding is ideal for small cosmetic improvements but may not be recommended for significant damage or bite-related concerns. - Requires Occasional Touch-Ups:
Over time, bonded areas may need touch-ups or polishing to maintain their appearance and function.
While dental bonding is a simple and affordable option for minor issues, it’s important to understand its limitations. We will guide you through the risks and benefits of dental bonding, helping you make an informed and confident choice.
Can bonded teeth be whitened?
Bonded teeth do not respond to traditional whitening treatments. The bonding resin maintains its original colour after placement. Whitening products can brighten your natural teeth but leave bonded areas unchanged. If staining occurs, replacing the bonding material is often recommended for the most natural and even result.
We assess your smile before any whitening to plan the most suitable approach. For even colour, we may suggest replacing the bonded areas after whitening. This helps achieve a consistent, natural-looking smile that meets your expectations. Our team will always guide you with honest, evidence-based recommendations for your dental care.
How much does dental bonding cost in Bunbury?
If you’re considering dental bonding in Bunbury, understanding the cost can help you plan your treatment with confidence. While prices can vary based on individual needs, here are a few key factors that influence the cost:
- As a general guide, dental bonding for fractured or cracked back teeth generally starts at $260 per tooth surface. Bonding for front teeth typically starts at $465 per tooth surface.
- Final costs can vary depending on the complexity of the case, the materials used, and your treatment requirements.
- The location of the dental clinic—whether in central Bunbury or surrounding suburbs—may influence the overall cost of treatment.
- The experience and qualifications of your dentist can influence the cost of dental bonding.
- A personalised consultation is the most accurate way to determine your total treatment cost based on your specific smile goals.
Your Bunbury dentist can provide a tailored treatment plan that clearly outlines the costs and available options. This helps you understand which treatment aligns with your unique needs and preferences.
Is dental bonding covered by health funds?
At Eversmile Dental, we understand that patients often ask whether their health funds cover dental bonding. The answer depends on several factors.
Cover Depends on the Purpose:
- Health funds generally cover treatments that address functional dental issues, not purely cosmetic enhancements.
- If bonding is used to restore a chipped or damaged tooth affecting its function, some health funds may provide benefits.
- When dental bonding is performed purely for cosmetic reasons, it is less likely to receive benefits from your health fund.
- Every health fund has different policies, so it’s important to check your specific cover or speak with your provider.
Item Codes and Claims:
- Our team can provide you with the relevant item codes used for dental bonding procedures.
- You can present these codes to your health fund to check if they are eligible for benefits before your treatment.
- We’re happy to assist you in understanding how dental bonding is classified for claiming purposes.
- Having a clear understanding of your cover helps avoid unexpected costs and supports choosing the option that suits your needs.
While dental bonding may be eligible for health fund benefits, it’s important to check with your provider before treatment. Feel free to contact us for help checking your cover or discussing affordable dental treatments in Bunbury.
