Tooth Makeover

The technique can be used to reshape chipped, overlapped, or fractured teeth, as well as to minimize the appearance of crowding.
While body reshaping may involve strenuous exercise and/or modification surgery, tooth reshaping is a relatively easy matter. It involves removing small amounts of enamel to eliminate or minimize imperfections. For instance, the points of upper canine teeth can be blunted somewhat to eliminate their fang-like appearance. Tooth reshaping (or enamel re-contouring) can also help improve the look of a smile by altering the shape, length, contour, or position of a tooth and its relationship to adjacent teeth. The technique can be used to reshape chipped, overlapped, or fractured teeth, as well as to minimize the appearance of crowding. In addition, tooth reshaping may be undertaken to correct developmental imperfections and abnormalities, such as pitting and grooves in the enamel.
