What Is Cosmetic Recontouring?

Cosmetic recontouring, also known as tooth reshaping or dental contouring, is a minimally invasive procedure that improves the appearance of your teeth. This technique gently removes or reshapes enamel in order to correct an irregular tooth shape, minor chips or uneven edges. After removing the enamel, Dr. Eddleman will then polish the teeth. Reshaping the enamel results in a beautiful, balanced smile.

What Issues Does Cosmetic Recontouring Correct?

At Eddleman Dental, our goal is to help you achieve a smile that you can feel confident about. Cosmetic recontouring reshapes the enamel to correct several possible issues or imperfections may have with your teeth. Cosmetic recontouring is a quick, easy fix for issues such as:

  • Uneven teeth: If you have uneven teeth, removing small amounts of enamel can help make your teeth appear even.
  • Chipped teeth: Cosmetic recontouring can smooth out chips in your teeth, or even rough edges, to give your teeth a more polished appearance.
  • Overlapping teeth: To create a more balanced smile, this treatment can correct protruding or overlapping teeth.
  • Irregular teeth: This treatment reshapes irregularly shaped teeth to improve both the symmetry and aesthetic of your smile.
