Cosmetic re-contouring

You need a beautiful smile? We can help you with cosmetic re-contouring. We do understand that not everyone is blessed with a beautiful smile, but nevertheless, we can make your smile beautiful!
Cosmetic re-contouring is a process wherein we trim your enamel slightly. The process changes the shape, size, and surface of your teeth and thus aligns your teeth for a beautiful smile.
*Enamel is the hardest, outermost covering of the tooth.
Cosmetic re-contouring is also known as odontoplasty or reshaping. It is suitable for minor corrections in the shape, size, appearance, and alignment of your teeth, such as:

  • smoothing out the bulged out teeth
  • clearing the small pits on the teeth
  • shortening the elongated teeth
  • correcting minor overlaps
  • fixing small chips
  • correcting the irregularly shaped out teeth

Tooth reshaping is a quick and painless procedure. You can get it done in a single visit.

Cosmetic re-contouring procedure

We examine your teeth and take the X-ray if needed. It lets us know how much enamel we can safely trim. You do not need any anaesthesia.
We trim the required amount of enamel via laser or aerotor.We can also combine cosmetic re-contouring with dental bonding.
Dental bonding is a procedure wherein we add some material to your tooth to improve your smile. It is more suitable when some teeth are smaller or misshaped such that they need some material to make them look ideal. Dental bonding is also suitable for chipped, cracked, and stained teeth as well as exposed roots.
Post cosmetic re-contouring, you need to brush only with soft bristles and non-abrasive toothpastes. It ensures you don’t develop sensitivity. In addition to improving your looks and adding more confidence to your smile, odontoplasty removes crevices and overlaps in your teeth. Thus, odontoplasty helps you improve your overall dental health and maintain better dental hygiene.
