Almost each of my teeth look like they belong in a different mouth. The shapes are so random it’s crazy. One tooth is pointy but the next tooth is square. Others are round on the edges and there are some that even look more oval. They are poorly shaped. My dentist told me that he can shape them for me. I asked him if it’s something that he normally does and he said that he never did before! Now why would I let him practice on me? Actually shaping my teeth sounds like a good idea but how do I find say the top 10 dentists that can do it right? Bella I.
Bella - You have made a wise decision to find an experienced cosmetic dentist to shape your teeth. And that’s the key—find a cosmetic dentist, not a general dentist to do the work. Although you won’t necessarily find a list of top ten dentists for tooth contouring in your area, you can visits websites of cosmetic dentists to find out whether they are accredited or not, and how much experience they have. After you have narrowed your choices you can call dental offices to ask questions specifically about tooth contouring.
An examination by a cosmetic dentist will also tell you if you are a candidate for contouring or whether a different treatment will work best for your case. You can start by having a consultation with two or three cosmetic dentist before you decide whom you would like to enhance your smile.
