Smile design is a comprehensive approach to improving the appearance of a person’s smile through a combination of cosmetic dental procedures. It involves careful consideration of factors such as tooth color, shape, size, alignment, and overall facial aesthetics to create a customized treatment plan that can improve the appearance of the teeth and gums.
Smile design can include a wide range of cosmetic dental procedures, including teeth whitening, veneers, dental bonding, orthodontics, and gum contouring, among others. The specific procedures used will depend on your individual needs and goals.
Who are the candidates?
Smile design is typically recommended for patients who are unhappy with the appearance of their smile and are looking for a comprehensive way to improve it. Common concerns that can be addressed through smile design include:
Discolored, stained, or yellowed teeth
Crooked or misaligned teeth
Gaps or spaces between teeth
Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth
Uneven or gummy gumline
Overall facial symmetry and proportion
Not everyone is eligible for smile design. The procedures involved in smile design may not be appropriate for patients with certain underlying dental or medical conditions, such as severe gum disease or tooth decay, or who have inadequate tooth structure to support certain treatments. A dentist or cosmetic dental specialist can help determine if a smile design is a suitable option for each individual patient.
