Let’s Talk Texture And Contouring

You might know that dental contouring is a cosmetic procedure that’s going to make your smile oh so much prettier through the gentle removal of some enamel tissue. However, you might not have a whole lot of experience with the benefits. Today, let’s talk about the particular advantage that contouring offers you in the way of textural improvements. This, of course, refers to the surface of your teeth, the way they feel, their evenness (or lack thereof), etc. You just might find that gently buffing certain areas with contouring is what you need.

Pointed Tips Of Teeth

How are the tips of your teeth? Are they pointed? Are they quite sharp? There are a couple reasons you may wish to address this textural issue with the help of dental contouring and we’re happy to say it will quickly solve your problem! First, you may not like having pointed looking teeth! Next, they may actually cause you some discomfort if they’re sharp. No worries. Contouring is here to help.

Jagged, Uneven Tooth Borders

If your tooth border of a particular tooth is rough or tumbly, dental contouring can help. If your teeth are uneven across the board, causing a jagged smile, then contouring can help here, too, by addressing multiple teeth!

Pitted Tooth Surfaces

When you smile, is it apparent that along the surface of your teeth that faces outward, the plane isn’t exactly smooth? Perhaps your teeth appear pitted or a bit wavy. Patients with sufficient enamel thickness and just a bit of a problem with surface texture may be able to benefit from dental contouring. It’s as simple as doing just a bit of smoothing work to ensure the smile you show off when you part your lips is a smooth and lovely one.
