Tooth reshaping is an ideal solution for patients with small cosmetic concerns, such as:
During tooth contouring, enamel is carefully reshaped to improve appearance, bite, and oral hygiene. In some cases, tooth-coloured resins may be added to correct shape or length, enhancing symmetry and creating a harmonious smile. Unlike more invasive procedures, tooth contouring is quick, minimally uncomfortable, and often completed in a single appointment.
Even subtle refinements can dramatically improve your smile, making it appear more uniform and polished. For patients seeking a more dramatic transformation, tooth contouring can be combined with other cosmetic dental procedures, such as veneers or bonding, to achieve a full smile makeover.
A healthy, balanced gum line is essential to an attractive smile. Some patients feel self-conscious about excessive gum tissue, which can make teeth appear shorter or uneven. Gum contouring addresses this by gently reshaping the gums to expose more tooth surface and improve symmetry.
The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, is minimally invasive, and usually requires no stitches. Recovery is fast, allowing patients to enjoy the benefits of their newly enhanced smile almost immediately. Gum contouring can also be combined with tooth contouring, veneers, or crowns for a complete aesthetic improvement.
Receding gums not only affect aesthetics but also increase sensitivity and the risk of decay. Causes include ageing, genetics, and lifestyle factors such as aggressive brushing or gum disease. At Jiva Dental, we provide receding gums treatment tailored to the severity of your condition.
Treatment options range from professional scale and polish procedures to advanced cosmetic interventions that restore gum tissue and improve overall oral health. Maintaining gum health is critical not only for appearance but also for long-term tooth stability and comfort.
