Dental Insurance: Tooth shaping can also be called enamelplasty, if you not adding any other man made materials to reshape the teeth. Usually this is considered cosmetic. Most insurances do not cover any procedures that are deemed cosmetic.

Probably not: Tooth recontouring is cosmetic in nature, and will most probably not be covered under any insurance policy. The fee would be minimal, so it really should not be that expensive.
