See it before you decide
Smile design isn't a treatment, it's the plan. It's what happens before we decide whether porcelain, composite or neither is right for you.
What we analyze
Your face, not just your teeth
The line of your eyes, the width of your smile, how your upper lip falls when you speak, how much gum shows when you really laugh. A smile that's correct on a model can look wrong on a face.
Your proportions
Width-to-height ratio of each tooth, the progression of the laterals, the position of the midline.
Your function
How you close, where you load, whether you clench at night. A smile that looks good and fractures within a year is no result at all.
Your age and personality
Perfectly straight, very white edges on a 55-year-old look installed. Natural has texture, translucency and a deliberate touch of asymmetry.
What you get
- Professional photo set of your current smile
- Digital preview on your own photographs
- Trial smile in temporary material
- Written treatment plan with options and pricing
- Time to think about it
Consultation with design: $[X], credited toward treatment if you go ahead.
Questions patients ask
Is smile design a treatment?
No, it's the plan. It's what happens before we decide whether porcelain, composite or neither is right for you.
Can I see how it will look before I pay for treatment?
Yes. The digital preview and the trial smile are part of the process, before anything permanent is made.
Can I pick the shade?
Yes, and you choose it at the trial smile stage, looking in the mirror. If the shade you want won't look natural, we'll say so, but the decision is yours.
What does the consultation cost?
$[X], credited toward treatment if you go ahead.
Start with the plan
