Tooth and Gum Recontouring

Recontouring is a subtle cosmetic treatment that can reshape the edges of the teeth or adjust the gum line to improve the overall balance and appearance of your smile.

Tooth recontouring involves gently reshaping small areas of enamel to smooth out minor irregularities, such as slightly uneven or pointed edges. Gum recontouring, sometimes called a gum lift, adjusts the gum line where a "gummy smile" or uneven gum edges are affecting the appearance of the teeth.

Both treatments are typically minimally invasive and can make a noticeable difference to the appearance of your smile, often combined with other cosmetic treatments for a more complete result.

Tooth recontouring is generally painless as it only involves reshaping the outer enamel. Gum recontouring is carried out under local anaesthetic for your comfort.

Tooth recontouring results are generally long-lasting since enamel does not regrow. Your dentist can advise on what to expect for your particular case.

Yes, recontouring is often combined with treatments such as whitening or bonding as part of a broader smile enhancement plan.
