What Is Smile Design?
Smile design (also known as smile makeover) is a personalized aesthetic dental treatment that improves the appearance of your teeth, gums and overall facial harmony. It is not just about having white teeth. Smile design focuses on:
- Tooth color
- Tooth shape
- Tooth size
- Alignment
- Gum symmetry
- Smile line and facial proportions
Using digital smile design technology, we analyze your face, lips and teeth to create a natural-looking, balanced and confident smile. The goal is not to make you look artificial, but to enhance your natural beauty.
