" A beautiful smile is magic... creating one is not"
A believable beautiful smile is the interaction of how a person's teeth appear in relation to the lips, face, and personality. We refer to this as the "macro-esthetics" of natural dentition.. It begins by balancing the proportions of teeth display to one another and in relation to the visible soft tissues (gums),
Of equal importance in creating a beautiful and believable smile, is the "micro-esthetics" of natural dentition, or the individual characteristics that make each individual tooth look "real".Translucency, brightness, luster and surface texture, opalescence, are among several of the optical qualities of natural dentition.
It is important to understand the principles of artistic proportion that have existed for centuries in the art world.
Particularly. In an era of digital technology, it can be easy to bypass the true foundational knowledge of the art of esthetic design, and try to rely entirely on pre fabricated templates or excessive technology. Without a true head and hands-on knowledge of the elements of dental esthetics, the results are mediocre at best. We have devoted almost thirty years developing our own techniques and systems for smile design.
