Does teeth shaving cause any long term damage to teeth?

Q. My dentist told me when I was shown my clinchekc that I was going to need 6 teeth shaved to make space. Will this cause me any long term damage?,
A. No the amount of enamel removed is very small typically 0.2-0.4mm it is quite a common treatment and often means no healthy have to be extracted.
