  3. Rapid results: Most composite bonding procedures can be completed in a single visit, allowing you to flaunt your new smile in no time!
  4. Long-lasting: With proper care, composite bonding can last up to 10 years, giving you a full decade of ear-to-ear grinning.
  5. Effortless repairs: Accidents are inevitable, but fear not! Composite bonding is easily repaired, ensuring your smile remains impeccable.
