Direct bonding is a fast, conservative way to fix chips, gaps, and small imperfections. Tooth-coloured resin is sculpted onto your tooth and polished to blend in seamlessly — often in a single visit.
What to expect
Your dentist shapes and hardens the resin, then polishes it to match the surrounding teeth. There’s usually no drilling and no anaesthetic needed.
