Cosmetic Contouring

Cosmetic Contouring

Subtle reshaping with cosmetic contouring creates balance and smooths imperfections in your smile.

Cosmetic Contouring in Redondo Beach

At South Bay Dental Esthetics, we refine and reshape smiles with precise cosmetic contouring. Also called tooth reshaping, this minimally invasive procedure creates balance and harmony in your smile—often in just one appointment. Dr. Slobodan “Bo” Djordjevic, DDS, combines over 25 years of experience with gentle care to deliver natural, lasting results.

What Is Cosmetic Contouring?

Cosmetic contouring involves carefully reshaping tooth enamel to improve appearance. By removing tiny amounts of enamel, teeth can be smoothed, shortened, or adjusted for a more even and symmetrical look.

Cosmetic contouring is ideal for improving:

  • Slightly uneven or overlapping teeth
  • Minor chips and rough edges
  • Pointed or irregularly shaped teeth
  • Teeth that look longer or shorter than neighbors
  • Subtle bite imbalances affecting appearance

Why Choose Cosmetic Contouring?

This procedure offers one of the fastest and least invasive ways to enhance a smile. Unlike crowns or veneers, cosmetic contouring requires no artificial materials—it simply reshapes the enamel you already have.

Benefits include:

  • Instant results: Noticeable improvements in a single visit
  • Painless process: Usually no anesthesia is required
  • Noninvasive: Minimal enamel adjustment preserves tooth strength
  • Affordable: Lower cost compared to other cosmetic treatments
  • Natural look: Enhances your existing teeth without adding restorations

Our Approach at South Bay Dental Esthetics

  • Smile analysis: Dr. Bo uses digital scans and years of expertise to map subtle adjustments for balance and symmetry.
  • Gentle reshaping: Using precise tools, enamel is sculpted comfortably and conservatively.
  • Finishing touches: Teeth are polished for a smooth, natural shine.
  • Patient comfort: Our ErgoSoothe™ massage chairs and calm, caring approach make the experience relaxing.

The Cosmetic Contouring Process

  1. Consultation & Exam – We evaluate your teeth and determine if contouring alone, or combined with bonding/veneers, is the best option.
  2. Reshaping – Small amounts of enamel are carefully removed to smooth edges and adjust shape.
  3. Polishing – Teeth are polished for a seamless, natural finish.
  4. Follow-Up (if needed) – For combined treatments, we may recommend bonding to fill gaps or improve color.

Caring for Contoured Teeth

Because contouring only removes enamel, no special maintenance is required—just:

  • Brush and floss daily
  • Schedule professional cleanings with our hygienist Kathy
  • Protect teeth from grinding with a nightguard if recommended
