Advantages of Teeth Contouring
Dr. Kiehl on Teeth Contouring

Sometimes we have patients who come in again, with just minor chips, perhaps in the front teeth, a little enamel that's broken. Oftentimes, we can just reshape those areas very minimally again, noninvasively, just to recontour things and keep any sharp edges from cropping up. Patients are very appreciative of that because they're thinking they're gonna need more and oftentimes we can just do it very easily.
Are your teeth chipped, uneven, too long, poorly aligned, or misshapen? You have several cosmetic dentistry choices here, including dental veneers. For fairly minor flaws, dental contouring may be a good option.
Advantages of teeth contouring include:
- Speedy treatment. Since we use a high-tech laser to contour your teeth, the entire procedure can be completed in a single visit, often in as little as half an hour.
- No discomfort. There are no nerves in your tooth enamel. So you won’t feel any discomfort as we gently reshape your teeth!
- Won’t break the bank. Teeth contouring is one of the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedures.
Some patients combine a teeth contouring treatment with tooth bonding for a more complete smile makeover.
The treatment will also help you take better care of your teeth! After a teeth contouring treatment, most folks find it easier to get into the nooks and crannies, where plaque and tartar collect, while brushing and flossing.
Crown Lengthening
We also can remove excess bone or gum tissue to show more of your tooth surface. This can be done for an improved appearance or to prepare your tooth for a restoration like a dental crown or veneer.
Keeping You Comfortable
Your contouring treatment or crown lengthening treatment will be quick. But we want to make sure you feel comfortable the entire time. We are happy to provide:
- Soft pillows
- Cozy blankets
- Music to relax you while we work
