ESTHETIC RECONTOURING


Esthetic recontouring reshapes teeth without addition of restorative materials. Teeth must be the appropriate size when recontouring is done and removal of tooth structure must be confined to enamel. Sandpaper disks, diamond burs or finishing burs recontour the incisal edge. Flame shaped finishing burs form embrasure areas and fine contours such as line angles. Surfaces are polished with fine sand paper disks, rubber wheels and polishing cups with polishing pastes.
