Composite Bonding Courses UK

Composite bonding courses teach direct anterior and posterior restorations: shade selection, layering, edge bonding, contouring and polishing. Most are one or two day hands-on days on typodonts, with the better ones including live patient demonstrations and a photography protocol so you can review your own work.

46 courses listed, including 41 currently bookable or enquiry-ready

What to check before booking

  • Hands-on time per delegate, not just demonstrations from the front.
  • Whether the course covers a full anterior protocol or only edge bonding.
  • Materials and instruments used, and whether they match what your practice stocks.
  • Post-course support such as case review groups or mentoring.

Questions

Composite Bonding courses, common questions

How many CPD hours is a composite bonding course?

Most one-day hands-on composite courses provide six to seven hours of verifiable CPD, and two-day programmes provide twelve to fourteen. The exact figure is set by the provider and shown on each listing.

Do I need a composite bonding course to offer edge bonding?

No specific qualification is required for a registered dentist, but composite bonding is technique sensitive and most dentists take a hands-on course before offering it privately. Your indemnity provider may ask about training for cosmetic work.

Is composite bonding training verifiable CPD?

Under the GDC Enhanced CPD scheme dentists need 100 hours of verifiable CPD in each five-year cycle, with at least 10 hours in any two consecutive years. Check that the provider issues a certificate that states the hours, the learning outcomes and the GDC development outcomes it maps to.
