Composite Bonding in Beverly, MA

Composite bonding fixes a chipped, stained, or uneven tooth in a single visit.

We apply tooth-colored resin to the tooth, shape it to match, and harden it in place, with little to no enamel removed and usually no anesthesia.

You walk out the same day with the tooth corrected.

What Composite Bonding Fixes

Composite bonding uses a tooth-colored resin applied directly to the tooth, shaped by hand, and hardened in place. It corrects small cosmetic problems without the lab work or multiple visits that other options need.

Bonding works well for:

  • Chipped or cracked teeth A small chip or crack rebuilt and smoothed in one visit.
  • Gaps between teeth Minor spaces closed by adding resin to the edges of the teeth.
  • Stains and discoloration White or brown spots and worn areas masked with matched resin.
  • Uneven or misshapen teeth A tooth that is too small or oddly shaped reshaped to match the others.

The whole procedure usually takes one appointment, removes little or no natural tooth, and rarely needs anesthesia.

That makes it one of the fastest, most conservative ways to improve a smile.

Bonding or Veneers

Bonding and veneers solve similar problems in different ways, and the right choice comes down to how much you want to change and how long you want it to last.

Bonding is faster and more affordable. It happens in one visit, costs less, and removes almost no enamel, which makes it ideal for a single chipped tooth, a small gap, or a stained spot. The tradeoff is lifespan: composite resin stains over time and needs occasional touch-ups or replacement.

Porcelain veneers cost more and take two visits, but they resist stains, hold their color, and last a decade or more. They suit a fuller smile makeover or a change you want to keep long-term.

At your consultation, Dr. Kuljic and Dr. Mandic help you weigh both against your goals and your budget.

Actual Work of Dr. Kuljic

Redoing bonding that never looked right

She was born with teeth of irregular shape and size and had bonding done elsewhere years earlier, but the result never looked natural to her.

We stripped off the old bonding and rebuilt it with a shape, color, and texture that matched her natural teeth.

Case 02
Actual Work of Dr. Kuljic

Rebuilt after years of gum disease

Long-standing gum disease had gone past the point where treatment could save her teeth, and it had taken bone with it. She wanted something that still looked like her own smile, only brighter.

We removed the failing teeth, fitted an interim denture while she healed, and made her final denture to resemble the teeth she had known, a shade lighter than before.
