Cosmetic Recontouring

Cosmetic Recontouring at Owens Dental

Owens Dental offers a range of cosmetic procedures, because we want you to have as many options as possible for achieving the smile you’re after. One of the most popular is cosmetic recontouring.

What Is Cosmetic Recontouring?

Sometimes teeth are only slightly crooked or a little uneven — not enough to justify braces or a long, complicated procedure. That’s where recontouring is especially useful.

Cosmetic recontouring reshapes slightly irregular teeth. It’s quick and painless, produces fast results, and requires no local anesthetic or injections.

What Recontouring Can Correct

• Tooth length: If your canines or other teeth are longer than average, recontouring can shorten them for a more uniform look.
• Bumps and pits: Irregularities on the tooth surface can be smoothed away.
• Uneven shape: Teeth that are slightly misshapen can be restored to a natural contour.
• Small chips: Minor chips can be smoothed and blended into the surrounding tooth.

The result is a smile that looks noticeably better — and teeth that function better too — without crowns, veneers, orthodontics, or other more involved procedures.
