Most people want straight, beautifully aligned, white teeth.
Unfortunately, most people are not naturally born that way. When teeth are in
poor alignment, rotated, tilted, and/or crowded, one obvious way to correct the
problem is by orthodontics (braces). However, there are situations where it may
not be possible or desirable to use braces to straighten teeth. You might feel
that you are too old (although this is rarely the case), the cost of the
orthodontics may preclude their use, you may not want to wear braces, or
perhaps there are only a few areas that need attention and full orthodontics
are not indicated.

In certain select cases, the appearance of your top and
bottom teeth can be slightly or dramatically improved by recontouring the
enamel. The upper and lower incisors and canines can be routinely altered.
Sometimes teeth further back in your mouth can also be cosmetically improved.
Recontouring is useful when there is slight to moderate overlapping of the
front teeth, uneven wear, or teeth that do not have their biting and incising
edges in harmony, in effect, an uneven “picket fence” look. Enamel recontouring
is a painless procedure and no local anesthetic is needed. The enamel that is
overlapping or poorly shaped is removed, recontoured, and polished. Different
amounts of enamel may be removed from different teeth. The teeth do not become
prone to decay, are not made more sensitive to temperature changes, and are not
made significantly weaker or damaged by the procedure.
Many times, recontouring is all that is necessary to
significantly improve your appearance. Other times, when the poor alignment is
more pronounced, it may be done in conjunction with a bonding procedure.
The procedure is not difficult for the patient and can often
be done in only one appointment. The resulting change is immediate and
permanent. It does take an artistic approach on the part of the dentist to
determine what possibilities for change exist. We need to determine what enamel
needs to be removed, where we must add material, and where orthodontics is the
treatment of choice. The fees are reasonable and depend on the extent of the
treatment.
