Questions before booking
Cosmetic contouring reshapes teeth by gently removing small amounts of enamel to improve minor chips, uneven edges, or tooth symmetry.
It is typically painless because only a very small amount of enamel is adjusted, and anesthesia is usually not needed.
Results can last for years, depending on grinding, biting habits, oral hygiene, and whether bonding or other cosmetic treatment is also used.
