How Does Tooth Contouring Work?

Here's how it typically works:

• Consultation & Examination

  Our dentist will begin with a detailed examination of your teeth, often using X-rays to ensure that they are healthy and suitable for contouring. This step helps identify areas that need reshaping, whether it’s smoothing out sharp edges, correcting minor overlaps, or reducing surface imperfections.

• Reshaping Process

  During the actual procedure, the dentist will use a specialized sanding tool or laser to gently remove small amounts of enamel. This step helps reshape the tooth to create a more balanced, symmetrical, and aesthetically pleasing look. The amount of enamel removed is minimal, which is why the process is painless.

• Smoothing & Polishing

  After the reshaping is done, the dentist will smooth and polish the treated teeth to ensure they blend seamlessly with the rest of your smile. This polishing step also helps maintain the tooth’s natural shine and texture.

• Final Results

  The results are immediate. After the procedure, you’ll notice your teeth looking smoother and more aligned. Since tooth contouring only involves the outer enamel, there is no recovery time, and you can return to your normal activities right away.

Will my teeth need to be contoured?

Tooth contouring will re-shape your teeth if they are slightly damaged or crooked.

Dental contouring is said to be a cosmetic procedure on the upper teeth that is visible when smiling with your central, lateral and canine teeth.

Other than improving aesthetics of your gorgeous smile, the treatment can be of great help of your oral health and hygiene habits. If tooth contouring can be used to fix the problem of an overlap, then you will find it easier to keep your teeth clean once the treatment is done and it may help you avoid gum disease and tooth decay.

There are situations when tooth contouring might not be the ideal option since other concerns should be addressed too that include - tooth decay or other alignment issues. Your dentist will discuss these problems with you and suggest the right treatment.

How long will tooth contouring last?

These treatments are predictable and repairable. Teeth Contouring will last a long time as the teeth will remain in position until the teeth naturally move over the years. Bonding averages 7 to ten years.

How much will teeth contouring cost?

At Dental Clinic London, we charge around £150 to £300 for cosmetic dental contouring for each tooth. You will get a discount if you need more than one tooth treated. Tooth reshaping is an affordable cosmetic dentistry treatment that can help to improve your smile and appearance.
