Cosmetic Tooth Contouring

Cosmetic tooth contouring (odontoplasty) is a conservative, non-invasive treatment that artistically reshapes tooth enamel to:

  • Correct minor chips/irregularities

  • Improve tooth symmetry

  • Create harmonious smile proportions

  • Enhance overall dental aesthetics

Clinical Applications

✅ Ideal for:

  • Uneven tooth edges

  • Slight overlaps/crowding

  • Worn or fractured enamel

  • Pointed canines (“vampire teeth”)

✅ Common Combinations:

  • Teeth whitening for brightness

  • Composite bonding for volume

  • Veneers for major transformations

Treatment Process

  1. Digital Smile Analysis (3D imaging)

  2. Precise Enamel Removal (<0.5mm)
