If the dentist lengthens the top teeth without checking your bite path, your bottom teeth will collide with the back of the repair every time you swallow or talk. That constant bumping will knock the new bonding loose within weeks.<\/p>\r\n<p>The main headache comes down to leverage. When you make a tooth longer, biting creates a lever arm. Biting into a tough crust or an apple twists right at the glue line, where natural enamel would simply flex and absorb the shock. One awkward bite can snap that resin tip clean off.<\/p>\r\n<p>Plaque also settles easily along the join. 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.<\/p>\r\n<p>Visit our page on <a class=\"decorated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.envysmile.co.uk\/composite-bonding-london\" rel=\"noopener\" data-start=\"536\" data-end=\"569\"><strong data-start=\"537\" data-end=\"565\">composite bonding London<\/strong><\/a> to explore treatment options, costs, and expert advice.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are the real risks?
