Cosmetic Re-Contouring

Many patients are unhappy with their smile due to unevenness of their teeth. The unevenness can be due to some teeth having a different length as a result of faulty eruption patterns or simply a tooth having small chips at the edge that makes it look uneven. Some patients complain of having vampire teeth making their smile so harsh and ugly that they have stopped smiling altogether.

The Smile Institute uses cosmetic imaging, which entails taking a digital photograph of the smile and loading it into the cosmetic imaging software. The length, the size and the contours of the teeth can be minimally altered to see if the desired effect can be accomplished before irreversible adjustment of the teeth takes place.

What makes cosmetic re-contouring so appealing?

  • The relative low cost of the procedure,
  • You get instant results in the vast majority of cases, results are achieved in less than one hour in one visit
  • No anesthetic is necessary in the majority of cases due to minor adjustments that are being made.

It can also be combined with other procedures such as whitening or veneers and crowns to maximize the result and minimize the cost.

However, it is important to note that cosmetic re-contouring should not be the only treatment option being considered. One cannot decide on a particular procedure solely based on its aesthetic merit. There are times that lack of proper treatment or delay in such treatment can cause irreparable damage.  Our specialists will discuss all treatment options, going over the advantages and disadvantages of each option, so you can make an educated decision.

As with many of the dental cosmetic procedures available today at The Smile Transformation Institute, results can be shown even before the actual procedure is performed.

I visited Dr. Maddahi for the first time upon recommendation of some of his clients. The experience was even better than expected. May I say 'I enjoyed going to the dentist!' His highly communicative approach, including gentleness, friendliness, sense of ease, and mastery were what I have always thought a practitioner could have. Dr. Maddahi does.
