Cosmetic contouring is also called odontoplasty or teeth reshaping. This simple procedure helps manage aesthetic problems like chipped, uneven, cracked, or crooked teeth. It can also help correct misaligned teeth. Dentists remove some of your enamel, thereby altering its shape, length, and appearance.

  2. What Is Cosmetic Teeth Contouring Procedure? As earlier said, dentists perform cosmetic teeth contouring by using a drill to remove the enamel, a hard outer layer of the teeth that protects them from damage and sensitivity while eating hot or cold food. The procedure is quick, painless, and needs little or no recovery period. However, even before contouring, the dentist may recommend an X- ray to ensure the pulp is not too thin or adjacent to the teeth. The X- ray also helps determine the size and location of the pulp. After the tooth is sculpted, the dentist polishes and smoothens it to give an attractive finish. Before And After You must take adequate precautions after the tooth is contoured to ensure the reshaped tooth retains its look. This is because the enamel could now be exposed to flaking or discolouration. You must avoid chewing gum and food that’s hard to eat. Do not open containers with your teeth, as they could chip easily. You must also brush your teeth twice daily using non-abrasive toothpaste to prevent staining. Dentists also recommend avoiding carbonated and sugary drinks.

  3. What Are the Benefits of Teeth Contouring? It makes sense for patients looking to improve and alter the shape and size of their teeth. It also helps fix chipped and cracked teeth and the damage caused by teeth grinding. It also helps improve dental hygiene by making it easier to clean the areas between the teeth.
