Have you ever looked at someone when they flash their smile, and somehow it looks unnatural or fake-looking? This occurrence is not uncommon!
At Enamel Dentistry, we believe that a smile makeover should complement your natural facial features. Above all, your smile should reflect your personality. One of the reasons why many smile makeovers have an unnatural appearance is because the 3D Facial Design phase was not implemented before starting with the treatment.
Our smile design experts can help you achieve a natural-looking smile, book your virtual consultation here.
How do we approach a smile makeover differently?
As the only Southern African Digital Smile Design clinic, we offer our patients a one-of-a-kind experience. Our smile architects use front-end technology to create 2D and 3D imagery to guide us with case planning.
From there, we use a unique DSD design app to create your new smile in real-time. During this vital stage, we take into account your entire face to make sure the end result is in harmony with your natural features.
There are four parts impact how we design your smile. Can you take a guess what these four facial aspects are?
If you guessed face symmetry, lips, teeth, and gums, you were spot on! Why is it important to consider these? Here are some of the reasons:
Your face is unique, which means the position of your smile in comparison with the rest of your face will differentiate you from the next person. During facial analysis our team will determine the horizontal and vertical midlines of your face.
When someone talks, smile, or laugh their lips move in a distinctive way.
During the first phase of the smile makeover journey (also referred to as Digitisation), we gather images and video footage to replicate these movements in real-time.
We also have a closer look at your lip curve and how the mock-up of your new smile visually harmonises with your lips.
Your gums are the framework of your smile, which helps create a healthy appearance and impacts how your teeth look.
During the first phase of the smile makeover journey, we determine the amount of gum that should be visible when smiling, and how it will affect your new smile.
If you have a gummy smile or require more gum features, we address this with our gum shaping or contouring treatment.
When we look at your teeth, the most important factors are:
- Shape
- Size
- Arrangement
- Colour
Why do we look at these 4 elements? To ensure we design a smile that is naturally beautiful.
We mimic the natural imperfections of your original teeth to avoid fake-looking results.
