Cosmetic Re-Contouring

What if your dream of a picture-perfect smile comes true with a simple and quick procedure? Like to know more about it?

You can achieve the beautiful smile you deserve at Dentalnook through cosmetic re-contouring, a procedure that can subtly reshape your teeth and enhance their appearance.

What is Cosmetic Re-Contouring?

Cosmetic re-contouring, also known as odontoplasty or reshaping, involves gently trimming your tooth enamel to refine the size, shape, and surface of your teeth. This quick and painless procedure helps align your teeth for a naturally stunning smile.

Since, the enamel is the hardest, outermost layer of your teeth, we ensure only a minimal amount is removed for safe and effective results.

When is Cosmetic Re-Contouring Suitable?

This procedure is perfect for minor corrections, including:

• Evening out teeth that have irregular bulges
• Smoothing out minor pits or surface imperfections
• Reducing the length of overly long teeth
• Adjusting slight overlaps between teeth
• Repairing small chips
• Refining the shape of uneven teeth

The Cosmetic Re-Contouring Process

We carefully assess your teeth and take X-rays if needed to determine how much enamel can be safely trimmed. There is no need to numb the tooth or gums as the procedure is completely pain-free.

We gently sculpt your teeth to the perfect shape and size using lasers or aerotors. For small or misshapen teeth, we can combine re-contouring with dental bonding. In bonding, composite resin is used to fix chips, cracks, stains, or exposed roots.

After re-contouring, use a soft-bristled toothbrush and toothpaste with fewer abrasives to prevent sensitivity.

Why To Consider Cosmetic Re-Contouring?

Beyond enhancing your smile, this procedure smoothens out crevices and fixes overlapping teeth. Places like crevices or tiny gaps between overlapping teeth are the best for plaque buildup. Therefore, cosmetic recontouring improves your overall dental health and makes it easier to maintain hygiene.
