Subtle Changes. Big Impact.

If you’re looking to fix small imperfections like uneven edges, slight overlaps, or minor chips in your teeth, enamel shaping is a quick, painless way to enhance your smile often in just one visit. It’s one of the most conservative cosmetic treatments we offer at Perfect Smiles of Beverly, and the results can be immediate and natural-looking.

Is Enamel Shaping Right for You?

Enamel shaping is best for patients with healthy teeth and gums who are looking for subtle refinements, but it is not ideal when major changes are desired or needed. Enamel shaping may be the right choice if you:

  • Want fast results without drilling, injections, or long appointments
  • Have slight cosmetic concerns
  • Have small imperfections that won’t require veneers or orthodontics
  • Prefer a low-cost, low-commitment cosmetic solution
  • Need a finishing touch after braces or clear aligners

It’s important to note that adequate, healthy enamel is needed for enamel shaping to work properly. Unfortunately, not every tooth can be reshaped. Our team will evaluate and provide guidance when customizing your treatment plan.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is cosmetic gum shaping and why might I need it?

Cosmetic gum shaping, also known as gum contouring or gingival sculpting, is a dental procedure that reshapes the gum line to improve the appearance of your smile. You might need it if you have a “gummy” smile, uneven gum line, or excessive gum tissue covering your teeth. This procedure enhances the symmetry and aesthetics of your smile by exposing more of your teeth and creating a more balanced gum line.

How long does it take to see results from cosmetic gum shaping?

Results from cosmetic gum shaping are typically visible immediately after the procedure, as the reshaped gum line reveals more of your teeth and creates a more aesthetically pleasing smile. However, full healing and the final appearance of your gums can take a few weeks. During this time, it’s important to follow your dentist’s care instructions to ensure optimal healing and achieve the best results.
