What is teeth contouring?

Teeth shaping is the process of gently filing down the edges of your teeth to ensure your smile looks uniform, and your soft tissue doesn’t get damaged.

Contouring is often required at the end of orthodontic treatment after the teeth have become adequately aligned and signs of previous wear and tear need to be removed to uncover a beautiful smile. In some cases teeth shaping may be necessary after a minor dental trauma, or if a person has been grinding their teeth due to stress or another health condition.

What do you need to know before going ahead with teeth contouring?

Teeth contouring is generally one of the safest and mildest dental procedures. Nonetheless, your dentist must carry out a dental check-up on the tooth/teeth to be shaped, to ensure no dentin will be exposed as a result.
