About Cosmetic Contouring

If you are unhappy the shape and size of your teeth, you may be considering various cosmetic dentistry treatments and options. In many cases, cosmetic contouring, or more formally known as odontoplasty, can accomplish a patient's desired result by reshaping the existing tooth or teeth. Cosmetic teeth contouring is a quick and painless procedure that can help improve and enhance the symmetry and appearance of your smile.

What is cosmetic contouring?

Contouring, or teeth reshaping, is a simple procedure that removes some of your enamel to change the shape of your tooth or teeth. Contouring aims to alter the shape, length, and appearance of your teeth in order to improve your smile.

How is Contouring Performed?

Dental contouring is performed by a dentist using a dental drill or laser to remove enamel from your teeth. Enamel is the hard outer layer of your teeth that protects the vulnerable inside of your teeth.


This procedure is a great choice for cosmetic improvements because it is typically quick and painless and requires no recovery period. Dr. Spitzer can complete the procedure in a single visit without using a local anesthetic.
