This : This is problematic. It is very easy to remove tooth structure, very difficult to add back. There are things that can be done, including veneers and composite bonding. Each of those procedures has its pros and cons. Speak to your dentist who did the recontouring and explain your situation. I always advise to remove a little bit at a time.

Dr. : Dr. Davantzis is right. You must talk to your dentist about this. There are several options available to you from composite bonding to porcelain laminate veneers. However these options are costly. Please call your dentist.
