Family Friendly & Specialty Dentists in London, UK
Cosmetic contouring reshapes the edges of your teeth to create a more symmetrical, balanced appearance. We assess your suitability and the required timescales during a consultation with Dr Ope Sodeinde.
Small irregularities in your smile can feel magnified. You might notice a gummy smile where too much gum is visible, or perhaps gum recession that makes teeth look uneven. We use digital imaging for accurate diagnostics and treatment planning. Whether you need precise contouring or surgical gummy smile correction to address the root cause of excessive visibility, we provide cosmetic dentistry in London to balance your aesthetics. Our team follows standard infection control protocols. Dr Sodeinde assesses your specific anatomy during a consultation to determine the right treatment for your needs.

Many people feel a sense of discomfort about small chips or uneven edges. We treat these concerns with a focus on natural results, aiming to avoid any fake appearance. If you are worried about enamel damage, we can explain how we protect your tooth structure during the process. For those who feel anxious about visiting the dentist, we provide a calm environment to put you at ease.
This method is often used alongside zoom whitening to brighten the smile or composite veneers for more significant changes. We assess your specific candidacy and provide a cost estimate during your consultation.
We begin by evaluating your tooth structure to determine if composite bonding is the right fit. This consultation identifies the specific areas requiring contouring. We also discuss if you would benefit from laser teeth whitening to brighten your teeth before we refine the shape.
We carefully remove small amounts of enamel to smooth out irregularities. This process is fast. It corrects jagged edges or uneven lengths to create a more symmetrical look. If your needs are more complex, we can discuss no-prep veneers as an alternative.
For gaps or chipped areas, we add a tooth-coloured resin. We sculpt this material directly onto the tooth. It allows us to build up the volume and shape without removing healthy structure. The result is a natural, balanced appearance.
We polish the resin to match the natural lustre of your enamel, removing any rough edges so the contouring feels smooth to your tongue.
You and our team review the symmetry of your smile together, checking the proportions match your facial features. If you have dental anxiety, we provide support throughout these steps to keep you comfortable, and confirm you are happy with the final shape before you leave.
We use digital smile design software to create a virtual preview of your new smile, so you can see the plan before we begin. We take your unique facial features into account when planning, combining cosmetic dentistry, restorative work, and oral health considerations.
Aesthetic improvements need a foundation of healthy teeth and gums, combining beauty with function. Whether we are providing composite bonding, porcelain veneers, or no-prep veneers, we aim to keep treatment comfortable. This clinical approach is led by Dr Ope Sodeinde, our specialist periodontist (GDC No. 104071), who leads the practice.
Fees vary with the amount of tooth structure requiring adjustment. We give you a precise cost during your consultation after assessing your teeth.
The process is fast. Most reshaping is completed in a single visit at our Primrose Hill practice.
It is not painful. We focus on your comfort throughout the appointment to help keep the experience stress-free.
The reshaped contours are permanent. For those needing more significant changes to shape or colour, we provide composite bonding.
Whether you have a chipped edge or an uneven alignment, we determine your suitability for this treatment during a clinical exam, and Dr Sodeinde assesses your dental anatomy to check the tooth structure can support the change.
