Home / Cosmetic Dentistry / Tooth Recontouring
Do small imperfections in the shape of your front teeth detract from your smile? At Dental Partners of Fifth Avenue, located on the Upper East Side of New York City, tooth recontouring, also known as tooth reshaping, offers a simple, quick, and often inexpensive way to correct minor flaws like chips, uneven edges, or slightly irregular shapes. This subtle yet effective cosmetic dentistry procedure can create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile.
Tooth recontouring is a cosmetic dental procedure that involves gently removing small amounts of tooth enamel to alter a tooth’s length, shape, or surface. Our skilled dentists use precise techniques to smooth minor imperfections, round sharp corners, shorten teeth that appear too long, and even subtly reshape the front of a tooth to create a more harmonious and balanced smile. Because only a minimal amount of enamel is removed, the procedure is typically painless and often requires no anesthesia.
• Tooth recontouring is an excellent option for individuals with:
• Small chips or minor fractures on their teeth.
• Slightly uneven or irregularly shaped teeth.
• Teeth that appear slightly too long or pointed.
• Minor grooves or pits in the enamel.
• A desire for subtle yet noticeable improvements to their smile’s appearance.
It’s important to note that tooth recontouring is designed for minor corrections. If you have significant structural damage, severe misalignment, or large imperfections, other cosmetic or restorative treatments may be more appropriate.
The tooth recontouring procedure at our Upper East Side office is typically straightforward and efficient:
The entire process usually takes only one appointment, and you’ll leave with a more refined and balanced smile.
Tooth recontouring offers a minimally invasive way to make a significant positive impact on the appearance of your smile. If minor imperfections are holding you back from feeling confident, contact Dental Partners of Fifth Avenue today to explore the possibilities of cosmetic tooth recontouring.
