What is smile design?
Smile design is a cosmetic dental procedure aimed at enhancing the appearance of your smile by improving the shape, size, color, and alignment of your teeth. It is a comprehensive approach that considers the size, shape, position, condition, color, relationship of your teeth and your facial features, gum line, gum color, lip position, and overall health to create a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing smile. To apply the outcome of a smile design, we utilize zirconium crowns, emax crowns, laminate veneers, teeth whitening, and gum contouring. This innovative method allows us to precisely plan the necessary dental interventions required to achieve a perfect smile while avoiding any unnecessary procedures.
What does the process of smile design involve?
The smile design process begins with an analysis of digital models of your teeth and an evaluation of your facial features. Using virtual software, we create and apply the most suitable smile design to your teeth. We then print a model of the design, which is directly applied to your teeth for you to evaluate the expected outcome. Any requested changes are made and once the design is approved, the treatment begins. Smile design offers a conservative approach as it serves as an assessment before treatment, allowing us to determine the best shape and color for your teeth.
Can I choose the shape and color of my teeth during smile design?
Yes, you can actively participate in selecting the shape and color of your teeth during the smile design process. It’s important to note that while you can express your preferences, there may be certain limitations in altering the shape to ensure both aesthetics and proper functionality of your smile. When it comes to choosing the color of your teeth, there is a wide range of options available. Our team considers various factors, such as your skin tone, lip color, and the color of your gums, to determine the most suitable shade for your teeth. These assessments help us achieve a harmonious and natural-looking smile. However, it’s essential to highlight that there are no specific restrictions on color preferences.
What happens if I’m not satisfied with the result of smile design?
If you’re not satisfied with the result of the smile design, don’t worry. The assessment phase allows you to see and evaluate the expected outcome before any interventions are made. You have the option to request changes or discuss any concerns. We are committed to ensuring your satisfaction and will work together to achieve your desired smile.
What applications or techniques are used to achieve the desired result in smile design?
The selection of applications or techniques in smile design is influenced by various factors. When assessing the suitability of different options, we consider the condition of your teeth, the extent of decay, and the presence of gum retractions. Additionally, the position, shape, alignment, and bite relationship of your upper and lower teeth play a crucial role in determining the range of available choices. While applications like laminate veneers and emax crowns may have certain limitations, zirconium crowns offer broader possibilities and allow for preferences such as achieving extremely white teeth.
A confident smile is one of the strongest expressions.
How long does the entire smile design process typically take?
The smile design process is completed within one day. During your appointment, we take a digital impression and capture photos from various angles to begin assessing and designing your smile on a digital replica of your teeth and current smile. The following day, we thoroughly discuss the details of the prepared design, aiming to create the perfect smile for you. To provide a tangible representation of the expected outcome, we apply the design to your teeth using a printed impression. This allows you to experience the transformation visually and physically. Once the smile design is approved, the treatment generally spans approximately 5 days, assuming the teeth and gums are in a healthy state. However, it is crucial to prioritize oral health over cosmetic considerations. If any pre-existing dental or gum issues require attention beforehand, the treatment duration may be extended accordingly. Be assured that during the designing process, we will provide you with a personalized estimation of the treatment duration.
How much does smile design cost?
The cost of smile design can vary significantly depending on individual factors and specific treatment requirements. Since smile design is a personalized process tailored to each person’s unique needs, it’s challenging to provide a precise price range. However, as a rough estimate, a smile design involving zirconium crowns alone could cost around 2800 Euros. It’s important to consult with our cosmetic dentists to obtain an accurate assessment and cost breakdown for your specific smile design goals.
Are there any risks or potential complications associated with smile design?
Absolutely not. Smile designing is a highly advanced process that involves working on models that replicate your teeth, ensuring that there are no direct effects on your natural teeth. Thanks to innovative techniques in dentistry, this valuable procedure has become possible. In recent years, dentistry has made significant advancements in minimizing complications and risks associated with any treatment. It is crucial to stay informed about the latest practical applications and approach treatment decisions with caution.
