Smile design
Smile design combines diagnosis, planning and several dental fields to pursue a healthy, functional and harmonious result.

Smile is a universal and friendly greeting in all cultures, key to expression in the social life of humans and is the central point in the work of the dentist. It is composed of the atherosorium teeth, gum and lips that delimit the visible area; of greater aesthetic relevance.
- I'm not sure.What is smile design?
Improving the appearance of a smile is one of the main reasons why a patient is looking for treatment. The search for proportions, and a healthy and rejuvenated aspect, are the common goal of both dentists and patients.
It is important to start treatment with a planning that shows a possible end result that meets the expectations of both the patient and the patient's environment, as well as the team of clinicians and laboratory technicians involved in the case. The patient's needs to be metic. The patient's needs to be meticing the patient's needs are also to be metic. The patient's need to be meticing.
Once the treatment is done, the question is how to keep it over time. It is at this point that a comprehensive diagnosis and multidisciplinary planning are essential to achieve functional stability, controlling biological and environmental factors.
Disciplines that may be involved.
- Orthodontics
- Periodontics

Process stages
- Diatsar
- Planning

The clinical objective should be aimed at achieving the best possible result, bearing in mind the aesthetic problems of the patient and without overtreatment.
The practice of aesthetic dentistry should be a regular procedure for all interdisciplinary treatment, where interaction with the different specialties broadens the diagnostic vision and treatment plan in the reconstruction of the smile, improving in a predictable way the aesthetics of the anteromaxillary teeth, to provide balance and pleasant harmony when relating the successive width of the atherosuperior teeth, a fundamental aspect when carrying out an integral rehabilitation.
Failures_
Failures in smile design can be avoided if we pay proper attention to the determinants of harmony and proportionality, as well as the involvement of the patient in decision-making, under the guidance of the professional. The patient's. The patient's. The patient's. The patient's. The patient's. The patient's. The patient's. The patient's. The patient's. The patient's. The patient's. The patient'.
While it is true that health should never be sacrificed for appearance, less should be sacrificed the appearance of the patient due to the lack of information needed to make decisions about the future treatment plan or the fact that the dentist does not consider the different aesthetic options appropriate in each case.
Consequences of a bad Smile design
- Weakening of the dental structure (unnecessary tooth wear)
- Bacterial plaque accumulation between teeth and gums (gingivitis)
- Tooth fracture:
- Unnecessary wear of enamel (the enamel never recovers).
- Forces are generated that can cause root reabsorption of the dental organs involved.
- Coloring changes in the tooth.
- Problems at the level of the TMJ.
- Problems with occlusion.
- Lack of naturalness and brightness (for using low-end materials for treatments)
Therefore, smile design is a term used to make superior aesthetic restorations. This practice requires specific indications and professionalism from the interventional dentists.
