Subtle Refinements for a Balanced Smile

At Dr Raymond Platon & Associates, your trusted cosmetic dentist in Wetherill Park, we provide tooth contouring and reshaping to improve small imperfections in tooth shape and alignment. In this simple, painless procedure, our dentist reshapes small areas of enamel to improve tooth symmetry and balance. Because it usually requires no injections or drilling, our dentist performs contouring as a comfortable and conservative option.

Families from Prairiewood, Fairfield Heights, and Bonnyrigg visit our Wetherill Park dental clinic for tooth reshaping to enhance their smile with subtle but effective changes.

What Is Tooth Contouring & Reshaping?

Tooth contouring is a cosmetic dental procedure that gently removes small amounts of enamel to improve symmetry. It may help to:

  • Smooth uneven edges or minor chips
  • Correct slight overlaps between teeth
  • Balance tooth length for a more even smile
  • Enhance results when paired with Cosmetic Bonding or Teeth Whitening

Since enamel never grows back, your dentist actively assesses your suitability before treatment and clearly explains any risks or alternatives.

Benefits of Tooth Contouring

  • Creates a smoother, more aligned smile

  • Quick, painless procedure often completed in a single visit

    Frequently Asked Questions About Tooth Contouring & Reshaping in Wetherill Park

    Is tooth reshaping painful?

    No, the procedure is painless because the dentist reshapes only a small amount of enamel. In fact, most patients do not require numbing, and the procedure feels more like gentle polishing rather than drilling. Therefore, it is often considered one of the most comfortable cosmetic dental options.

    How long does tooth reshaping last?

    The result is permanent since enamel does not grow back. However, regular care such as routine dental exams and daily brushing helps maintain the improvement. As a result, the changes usually remain stable for life.

    Can a tooth be reshaped safely?

    Yes, tooth reshaping is safe when performed by an experienced dentist. However, suitability depends on the thickness of your enamel and your overall oral health. Because of this, an assessment is always carried out before treatment to ensure safety.

    What is the difference between reshaping and contouring?

    They describe the same process — carefully removing or polishing enamel to improve tooth shape and balance. In other words, “contouring” and “reshaping” are interchangeable terms that dentists use for this cosmetic procedure.

    Is reshaping better than veneers?

    Not always. Reshaping is best for subtle changes such as smoothing uneven edges. Veneers, on the other hand, are recommended for more noticeable or complex improvements. Therefore, your dentist will guide you toward the most suitable option for your needs.

    Can reshaping weaken teeth?

    No, reshaping does not weaken teeth as long as only a small amount of enamel is removed. In addition, dentists always check that enough structure remains to keep the tooth strong and healthy.

    Is tooth reshaping permanent?

    Yes, enamel never regenerates, so your dentist carefully evaluates before any reshaping begins. For this reason, careful planning and a thorough consultation are essential before treatment begins.
