Enamel Contouring
Small adjustments, big difference. Enamel contouring reshapes and levels your teeth for a smile that looks balanced and natural.
About The Treatment
What is Enamel Contouring?
Enamel contouring is a simple, minimally invasive treatment that reshapes the surface of a tooth to improve its length, edge, or overall proportion. A tooth that’s too long, slightly jagged, or uneven compared to the surrounding teeth can often be corrected in a single appointment.
It’s frequently combined with composite bonding to achieve the most balanced result. Contouring smooths down what’s too much; bonding builds up what’s too little. Together, they can make a significant difference to how a smile looks.
Benefits of Enamel Contouring
What to Expect
The Enamel Contouring Process at Teeth & Face
01
Assessment
We assess the tooth and discuss what you'd like to change. Very small amounts of enamel are removed at a time, so the process is gradual and controlled.
02
Contouring
The tooth surface is carefully smoothed and reshaped using a fine instrument. No anaesthetic is needed in most cases.
03
Bonding if needed
If adjacent teeth need building up to match, composite bonding is carried out in the same appointment for an optimal result.
04
Review
We check the shape, proportions, and bite before you leave to make sure everything looks and feels right.
Exceptional service and professionalism from the whole team at Teeth & Face. I have had hygiene appointments, whitening, composite bonding and a filling performed at the surgery, and have been thoroughly impressed with each. The composite bonding work was world-class, and it has completely transformed by smile.
