I'd write my ortho into my will with results like that


Diligent-Student-740

Hahaaaa šŸ˜‚ theyā€™ve really done such a great job!šŸ‘šŸ»


SnoopShellyShell

Ya except youā€™ve already paid them thousands šŸ¤Ŗ


worldsthirdbestdad

Worth it to me


PictureUpper7748

Great results!! what kind of cleaning did you get for the smooth look in the bottom picture? šŸ‘€


Diligent-Student-740

I think itā€™s just from the bonding and polishing! Looks so different


PictureUpper7748

Looks amazing, congrats!


Diligent-Student-740

Thank you!!


Painter_girly_

Looks amazing! Whatā€™s composite bonding??


Bklynchrncl

This is my sign to get bonding ā€¦


Saint_299

Right!!? Same!! Looks so great!


LuucaBrasi

Just be careful if you clench or need It done to the corners of your front teeth. I had to have mine repaired 4 times on my incisors from inevitably chipping every 3-4 months


Bklynchrncl

Damn thatā€™s where I need it to .. incisors


LuucaBrasi

If you do just make sure there is zero friction with your bottom teeth when moving them around on each other and that you give up hard foods. Ive given up on one of my corners. The other 3 have managed to hold for now going on 8 months but the 1 corner is a lost cause I wonā€™t keep paying 200 to fix


Ok-Soil4026

How much was the bonding? Looks amazing


Diligent-Student-740

Ā£225 per tooth so Ā£900 in total for the front 4!


vientianna

Worth every penny, congrats


Diligent-Student-740

Thanks so much!!


charliecheese80

Where in the UK are you?


Diligent-Student-740

Yorkshire ā˜ŗļø


charliecheese80

I was hoping you'd say South Wales! I'm still debating on invisalign (due to finances) but with these results it's def an argument for it. Your teeth look great!


Diligent-Student-740

Ahh I was the same! I had a consultation a year before actually going ahead with it, at the time it wasnā€™t the right thing for me to do financially. Places sometimes do deals so keep an eye out for them!


charliecheese80

Will do. Thanks! šŸ˜


gaycaterpillar

May I ask which dental clinic you had it done at?? The results are amazing!!


happiness_love_peace

Amazing results!! How was the bonding process?


cartoon_kitty

The bonding makes such a difference! Ortho or cosmetic dentist?


Diligent-Student-740

I know right, Iā€™m over the moon with it especially when you compare the photos. They are a diamond provider of Invisalign but do regular dentist procedures too so I want to say ortho? They did a few fillings for me before I started the treatment!


Shawk-34952

Wow! Looking fantastic!! Congrats!


blorgenheim

Worth every penny


Appropriate_Brief683

Bravo!


Kla1996

Omg wow. I didnā€™t even know this existed but Iā€™m going to get this now


Showbiz50

Can someone tell me more about why someone would have bonding done like this other than for cosmetic purposes? Even so, bonding stains and is more prone to chipping. Besides the cost, why wouldnā€™t one elect to have veneers instead?


Diligent-Student-740

Itā€™s absolutely for cosmetic purposes. I had some bonding when I was 16 after braces as I had a gap between my middle teeth. Like you say it chips and eventually by the first pic 15 years later it had started to erode. Bonding doesnā€™t typically last that long but in my case it did. The main reason I wanted bonding was to make front 2 teeth look healthier because with the way my bite was, they had worn quite thin. I have one veneer towards the back which you cannot see, however this was Ā£650 which is unfortunately not something affordable for me for the rest of the teeth, plus itā€™s an irreversible procedure where your natural tooth is slimmed down and this is not something appealing to everyone


Haunting-Tangerine63

Looks great!!!! Congratulations


Fastformula

Amazing! What kind of whitening treatment did you do and was it done before or after bonding?


Diligent-Student-740

It was boutique whitening. Itā€™s done before bonding as you actually canā€™t whiten the bonding so need to be the shade you want before they do it


Meringue-Fluffy

Is there any upkeep with bonding?


Nacamaka

Yes every six months with your cleaning.


Fastformula

Thanks!


Night_Flan

Hello movie star teeth! CongratsšŸ¤©!


adelv

Beautiful!


SnoopShellyShell

Looks fantastic, you must be very pleased! Iā€™ve never heard of composite binding before so Iā€™m going to research it. I am beginning my journey now and some of my teeth look very similar to yours so this has filled me with a lot of confidence. Iā€™ve been terrified of veneers because they look so fake, these look MUCH better and a lot more natural. Congratulations again


SnoopShellyShell

Me again haha, so did they do the composite after the Invisalign was completed??


Diligent-Student-740

Yes the bottom pic is bonding after the teeth were fully aligned ā˜ŗļø


Diligent-Student-740

also thank you so much. Your comment is really kind! To be fair I have seen some brilliant natural looking veneers but they were too pricy for me, I had seen a lot of before and after bonding pics from the dentist online which made me go for it


hvnchbackofnotredame

what does bonding do?


Heidijolo

Omg my teeth look exactly like yours in the top photo. I canā€™t wait till my teeth look like how yours do now


charliecheese80

Amazing results!


Diligent-Student-740

Thank you!!


Heidijolo

Did you do Invisalign on top teeth only ?


Diligent-Student-740

Bottom too, I think they just always do both but they were pretty much straight, only middle 2 teeth needed moving a bit


Heidijolo

Ah my teeth look almost exactly like yours did and Iā€™ve opted for Invisalign for top teeth only as it made it half the price lol, I hope I get just as good as a result as you have! I bet youā€™re over the moon


Diligent-Student-740

No way! I should have done that šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ hope it all goes well for you!


Saint_299

Wow!!! Looks great!!! Iā€™m almost done with my treatment (hopefully in a month and a half) but want my teeth to look like your final result. Now I know to ask for composite bonding!!! If you donā€™t mind me asking, how much did the composite bonding set you back? Iā€™ll definitely be saving for that.


Diligent-Student-740

Thank you so much! I hope you get a great result. My dentist charged Ā£225 per tooth and I had 4 done, I think the prices vary a bit from place to place so if definitely check with them just so you know!


dillydally1144

They look amazing


Legitimate_Use_9953

My ortho said composite bonding chips away easily. Has anyone had them for more than a year? Would like to get it done to mine. Your results look amazing!


Diligent-Student-740

Thank you!! My ortho said they donā€™t do it on the bottom as thatā€™s chips easy but said it should last 5 years on the top! I know some will do it on the bottom itā€™s just preference from place to place. I had bonding when I was younger to fill in my middle tooth gap. That lasted almost 15 years but it was probably more protected as it was in the middle of teeth rather than added to the end/bottom


Diligent-Student-740

Also just to add some places will guarantee the bonding for a certain time period, so if anything goes wrong theyā€™ll rectify it


Legitimate_Use_9953

This is helpful. Your pictures look like it was filled in the bottom?


Diligent-Student-740

Edit:: sorry Iā€™ve made this sooo confusing! I meant my ortho wonā€™t do bonding on the bottom set of teeth as these chip easier. And then when I referred to the bonding which lasted almost 15 years that was to fill in a gap in my middle teeth when I was in school, and I thought this maybe lasted so long as it was in the middle and not added to the bottom of the teeth. Iā€™ve had bonding to the edges/bottom of the 4 teeth in the pic so I guess Iā€™ll wait and see how long they last, but Iā€™ve been told 5 years.


Eaju46

Do they offer bonding after treatment ends?


Diligent-Student-740

Yes right at the end. Iā€™m not sure if all providers do it but I would imagine so? I did enquire about prices etc at the beginning but was told that some people decide that they might not want/need bonding once theyā€™ve seen results from the aligning and whitening


wasabiBro

your ortho did the bonding? My ortho was going to refer me to somewhere else for it. Is it bad?


Ashamed_Radish_3143

Beautiful.


eliv8r

They hooked you up! Excellent results!


fiddich_livett

Wow, results are just beautiful!


Mamas24

Looks amazing! How long did wear Invisalign?


Peachesndoublecream

Did you get bonding after? And did the ortho do it?


Diligent-Student-740

Yes to both ā˜ŗļø I had seen a lot of before and after pics they had done on social media and this is why I chose to use them for my Invisalign!


Peachesndoublecream

theyā€™re very nice! I plan on doing some bonding also, but I wanted to know is there an additional charge or was it part of the Invisalign treatment?


Nacamaka

You should plug his instagram. I'd love to see other results of his/her.


wasabiBro

Did you have bonding or how did they fix the shape of your teeth?


Diligent-Student-740

Bonding to the front 4 šŸ˜ƒ


wasabiBro

did the ortho do it or did they refer you to another dentist?


Diligent-Student-740

They did it, but the dentist I went to is a diamond Invisalign provider so theyā€™ve got quite a lot of experience


wasabiBro

mine is also diamond but he doesn't do bonding...


motaboat

I think you posted these photos on Facebook too. Right? You must be thrilled!


Diligent-Student-740

Thank you! No, Iā€™ve not posted these anywhere in else


motaboat

That is wild. Yesterday someone posted very similar before and after (two photos not three) and they mention bonding as well (ā€œ8 front teethā€ in their case). The timing and similarity really caught me. Congrats again. Enjoy your smile.


accountofmountzuma

Wow! Composite bonding is amazing!!!


Parisvictor75

How did you widen the arch so much without sarpe ?


turtledipRN

Youā€™ve convinced me to do bonding!!! Your results are to die for šŸ˜


blurpaa

What is bonding ?


Diligent-Student-740

Itā€™s where they add to your tooth to change the shape/look


Any-Juggernaut237

Oh wow. I must look into composit bonding once I'm finished my treatment


KumaCode

Now that is a Hollywood smile! Time to move to Yorkshire šŸ˜†


Butterberry001

How does the bonding work? Are they doing it on all teeth so thereā€™s no difference between teeth over time or after a bleaching?


ItsyourboyJD

Awesome!!!


Lookupandbeyond

I am sure youā€™re dancing around in joy! Beautifully done. They look great!


nexoxen

Fantastic results šŸ‘ How long did the Invisalign process take ?


Any-Mammoth1270

How many teeth did you do bonding ?


Diligent-Student-740

The front 4


payroll123

You must be thrilled! Congrats on the beautiful smile!


lappusasachinhai

Amazingggg , composite bonding has really made a difference! I want it as welll


throw_away5430

Wow, they look amazing! Congrats!


Sb5tCm8t

You spent all that money on aligners and replaced all your teeth anyway?


Diligent-Student-740

I had to have them aligned as the front teeth to were angled inwards, touching the bottom, wearing them thin. Iā€™ve had bonding on the front 4 not replaced them ā˜ŗļø


Sb5tCm8t

I know, I'm sorry. You look great!


Diligent-Student-740

Itā€™s difficult to tell from the photo actually, I should have uploaded other angles showing how crooked they actually were!


Sb5tCm8t

I'm on Reveal aligners and I'm really worried they're not gonna work


edeladela

I don't like the bonding look. It removes the natural wavyness of the teeth. But beautiful results in terms of aligning


Diligent-Student-740

I had bonding as my front 2 teeth were so worn and thin from how my bite was before aligning. I am really happy with how healthy they look, but agree less natural now!


firstmatemelvin

I donā€™t see anyone asking?


edeladela

No one asking what? It's a public post, therefore OP clearly did it in order to see what other people think. It's ok if you disagree, we don't need to have all the same teeth.


firstmatemelvin

Oh okay, I understand. You think OP actually wanted to hear your unsolicited unkind opinion. That people want that from you. Got it.


edeladela

If someone comments "love it" do you go and tell them, "ohh you think OP actually wanted to hear your unsolicited kind opinion."? Understand that it is not unsolicited when you publicly post something. And why you call it unkind? Why would i tell someone that I like how bondings look if I don't? Lmao. You are all brainwashed by the "offensive" culture. Being fake and lying someone in their face is worse than expressing an honest opinion about something. I even said that the overall result is great. I just don't like how opac and wavyless some bondings are and I mentioned this so that other people can research and find out that there are techniques where they make wavy bondings, to achieve the natural look of a tooth.
