A smile design is a dental process aimed at enhancing the aesthetic appearance of a person’s smile through a combination of personalized procedures. This can include changes in the color, shape, size, alignment, and other aspects of the teeth to achieve a more attractive smile that harmonizes with the patient’s face.
Digital smile design uses cutting-edge technology to plan and visualize results before any treatment is performed, allowing unprecedented precision in the final outcomes.
Aspects Addressed in Smile Design
Some of the aspects that can be addressed in a smile design include:
1. Tooth Color
Professional teeth whitening can achieve a whiter, brighter smile by removing stains caused by coffee, tea, or tobacco.
2. Tooth Shape and Size
Porcelain dental veneers or dental crowns can modify the shape and size of teeth to achieve perfect proportions.
3. Dental Alignment
Orthodontics with braces or invisible aligners correct tooth position for a perfectly aligned smile.
4. Repair of Broken or Chipped Teeth
Dental fillings and aesthetic restorations can repair damaged teeth, restoring their natural function and appearance.
5. Gum Contouring
Laser frenectomy procedures can improve the proportion between teeth and gums for a more harmonious smile.
