Hello! Welcome to Dent Laracity Dental Clinic.
How can we assist you today?
Our experienced team is here to help you with any questions you may have.
In aesthetic dentistry, it is possible to create significant changes with small touches. One of the most practical procedures used to correct minor imperfections on the tooth surface and achieve a more symmetrical and aesthetic smile is tooth reshaping, also known as dental contouring.
So, what exactly is tooth reshaping, and when is it used?
As Dent Laracity, serving in Antalya, we’ve answered the most common questions about this procedure for you.
Tooth reshaping is a quick, painless, and aesthetic procedure that corrects minor shape irregularities at the edges of teeth through careful polishing and enamel removal.
During this treatment, the tooth enamel is minimally reduced to improve the shape, resulting in a more aesthetic smile without significant damage to the natural tooth structure.
Tooth contouring is highly effective and practical in the following cases:
Minor chips at the edges of teeth
Slight misalignments that cause aesthetic concerns
Small shape discrepancies between teeth
Uneven or overly pointed tooth edges
Minor structural imperfections affecting smile symmetry
This procedure is an ideal, fast, and affordable solution for mild cases that don’t require orthodontic treatment.
1. Examination and Planning: The teeth to be treated and the extent of reshaping are determined.
2. Precise Reshaping: Minimal enamel removal is performed on the tooth surface.
3. Polishing: The teeth are smoothed and polished for a clean finish.
4. Combined Treatment (If Needed): For a more enhanced result, contouring can be combined with bonding, whitening, or full smile design treatments.
The procedure is typically completed in a single session, without pain or discomfort, and often doesn’t require anesthesia.
