Smile design is not a fluke but is based on scientific principles of facial and dental aesthetics
that are reliable, repeatable and reproducible.

A combination of various dental services can help you achieve an aesthetically symmetric, functional and flattering smile. Smile designing is unique to each and every patient that reflects the different needs and personal goals of each patient. Usually people suffering from multiple dental problems like fluorosis, mis alignment, dark gums, excess gum display, teeth decay, teeth loosening, missing teeth and gum disease opt for this makeover treatment. Even people with normal teeth wishing to improve on their colour and shape of the teeth also often go for smile design.

A Smile Design Can Include

• Closing gaps between teeth either by orthodontic treatment or by designing cosmetic crowns/veneers/jacket crowns.
• Using teeth whitening procedure to remove stains and to improve the colour of your teeth
• Precise reshaping of your gums using laser wavelength to decrease the gum visibility/gum pigmentation.
• Replacing the missing teeth thereby restoring the vertical height and functionality of the teeth. Thus preserving the jaw joints.

Smile Designing Process

Step 1: During First consultation every tooth and the gums are examined for any potential improvement. Your dental x-ray is taken to study your dental and facial structures which will allow your cosmetic dental surgeon to formulate a detailed treatment plan to enhance your Smile. Your treatment plan and goals for the smile design are then discussed to make you understand the treatment outcome and to have realistic expectations

Step 2: Photographs and models are taken for treatment planning.

Step 3: The individualistic treatment protocol is applied and the treatment is started, duration of which depends on the type/types of procedures involved. It may involve just a simple tooth whitening, laser treatments to a comprehensive full mouth rehabilitation.
