The art of creating the perfect smile

There is an art to creating the perfect smile. Before commencing any cosmetic or restorative procedures, you and your dentist must work together to design a look that is just right for you.

This will involve consideration of tooth size, colour and position, as well as skin tone and facial features.

Colour - white and bright to blend with your natural skin tones

Smile line - teeth edges even with no gaps or points, and softly curved to complement lip shape and jaw line

Tooth size and shape - contoured to create a smooth surface and even gum line and ensure the size and shape of teeth complement facial structure and balance

Position - upper and lower teeth correctly aligned without noticeable overbite or underbite

Tone - uniform toning without contrasting caps or fillings

Spacing - no uneven gaps or missing teeth.
