I had made a post prior to this but am wondering how much IPR can be done without causing any issues to the enamel. I had my front teeth done 3 times and my bottom teeth done once with a hand strip the doctor had used. I have discomfort weeks after the 3rd IPR but on the day it was done and two weeks later my teeth felt fine. I would like to do additional shaving in one tooth in the front since it shifted weird and close the small holes on the bottom teeth, but I am wondering if this is risky to do. My orthodontist said if I did not have any sensitivity that it would be okay to do some slight ipr. How many times can one do IPR using hand stripping without complications to teeth?
How much IPR can be done without issues?
