Enameloplasty

Enameloplasty is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a specialised tool to reshape your teeth. During this procedure, a high-speed abrasive tip removes a thin layer of enamel, thereby removing any imperfections and improving the overall appearance of teeth. Enameloplasty can be performed on its own or as part of other cosmetic treatments.

What Does Enameloplasty Treat?

Enameloplasty treats healthy teeth with minor imperfections. For example, it can be used to reshape minor abnormalities in some teeth to fit with your adjacent teeth. It can be used in front teeth for cosmetic enhancement and back teeth to improve function or correct bite.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Enameloplasty is routinely performed in general dentistry, and when performed by an experienced dental professional, it does not damage teeth. During enameloplasty, a fine layer of enamel is removed to correct the shape of teeth and beautify your smile.

Despite the procedure's minimally invasive nature, enameloplasty may cause tooth sensitivity. It is important to remember that enameloplasty causes loss of tooth enamel, the outermost covering of the tooth, which cannot grow back or repair itself.

Enameloplasty is a quick procedure that should take no more than 30 minutes. Treatment duration depends on the number of teeth that need to be reshaped.

There is no downtime after enameloplasty. You can go about your routine as usual.

Since enamel does not repair or regrow, the results of enameloplasty are permanent.

Enameloplasty may be required after braces are removed post-orthodontic treatment. Discuss with your orthodontist if you need to undergo enameloplasty during or after orthodontic treatment.

Besides enameloplasty, other cosmetic treatments can help alter the shape and size of your teeth to give you a beautiful smile. These include:

  • Laminates and veneers
  • Crowns
  • Direct Composite restorations

There is no recovery or downtime after enameloplasty. You can continue your regular activities right after the procedure. Here are some aftercare measures you can take for best results:

  • Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing atleast twice a day
