What is Tooth Contouring & Reshaping?
Tooth contouring and reshaping, also known as dental contouring or enameloplasty, is a cosmetic dental procedure that involves subtle alterations to the shape, size, or surface texture of the teeth to improve their appearance and symmetry. At St. Pete Oral Health Center in St. Petersburg, FL, we offer tooth contouring and reshaping as a conservative and effective way to enhance your smile.
What Does it Do?
Tooth contouring and reshaping can address various cosmetic concerns, including:
- Irregularly shaped or uneven teeth
- Minor chips, pits, or grooves in the enamel
- Overlapping or overcrowded teeth
- Rough or jagged tooth edges
- Pointed or elongated teeth
By carefully removing small amounts of tooth enamel and sculpting the teeth to achieve a more balanced and harmonious appearance, tooth contouring and reshaping can transform your smile with minimal discomfort and downtime.
