Tooth Bonding Recovery for Peg Lateral Teeth: Reshaping Small Incisors
An undersized, cone-shaped lateral incisor clinically referred to as a peg lateral can make your front smile line look asymmetrical. Composite bonding restores peg laterals in under forty minutes by hand-sculpting tooth-coloured resin around the narrow tooth until it matches the natural oval shape of your other teeth.
In our London practice, bonding a peg lateral tooth starts from £150 per tooth.
Once you leave our surgery, what is recovery actually like?
To put it plainly: there is virtually zero physical recovery. No healthy tooth enamel is removed, meaning you leave our clinic without throbbing aches.
Your gum collar gets comfortable with the wider tooth shape within twenty-four hours. Rinsing with warm salt water after brushing soothes that tissue quickly.
Stick to soft comfort meals like pasta, jacket potatoes, or soup for the first day, and let your back molars do the heavy chewing.
