Also known as dental bonding, ‘Instant (composite) Veneers’ are a  way of restoring chipped and broken teeth immediately in the dental surgery without any need to wait for a dental laboratory to manufacture your new veneer.

The technique derives its name as composite materials are bonded on to your tooth.  Dental Bonding is most often used for cosmetic treatments.
