Enamel Shaping: A Quick And Painless Process

What Is Enamel Shaping?

Enamel shaping is a process by which our orthodontists use a sanding disc to carefully remove small amounts of tooth enamel, then polish the area. At Holmes & Palmer Orthodontics, we perform this simple procedure alongside orthodontic treatment, when necessary to correct small imperfections.

When Is Enamel Shaping Done?

There are a few different circumstances that make enamel shaping a great option, such as:

Removing overlapping areas
Smoothing out rough spots
Eliminating minor chipping
Contouring pointy edges
Correcting minor discrepancies in size

Are You A Candidate For Enamel Shaping?

Not all dental problems can be solved with enamel shaping, but it is a great option for improving the appearance (and in some cases even the function) of teeth with smaller imperfections. Our team of orthodontists will evaluate the need for enamel shaping as part of your comprehensive orthodontic treatment plan. To learn more, schedule your complimentary consultation today!

My daughter, Gabi, goes to the Teays Valley/Hurricane office. She’s not had anything but good experiences. Everyone is super nice from the receptionist to the doctor. She’s having a great experience with her braces. The hygienist is always super helpful with any questions we may have. They have been amazing through all of my daughters care so far.
