When your bottom front teeth look ragged or uneven, you might wonder if quick composite bonding can level them up. People often ask our team at Envy Smile Dental whether bonding works on lower incisors or if they need to spend months wearing clear aligners.
We call this lower arch composite bonding. We don’t shave your enamel down. You leave the chair after about sixty minutes with composite resin shaped over the uneven edges, smoothing out the lower bite line.
Key Clinical Summary
In our clinic at 3 Goldhawk Road in London and talking with people who travel down to see us from Manchester lower teeth take constant downward pressure every time you chew. Because bottom teeth are much thinner than top teeth, adding extra resin can make them feel bulky against your tongue.
Plaque also gathers very quickly behind lower front teeth where your saliva glands sit. You have to thread floss right down into that crevice every single night, or tea and red wine will leave a dirty brown line right along the bond. An electric brush helps, but an interdental stick does the real work.
Beyond that, leave plastic tags alone. Don’t crack pistachios open with your front teeth. A slim night splint sorts out any clenching while you sleep.
