Assoc. Prof. Dr. Elif Öncü emphasizes that the most important rule in aesthetic dentistry is a natural look and shares tips on a poorly done smile design.
Aesthetics Isn’t Just About “Pearly White Teeth”
We can easily spot a poorly done smile design at first glance; because aesthetics isn’t just about having pearly white teeth. In a truly successful smile design, those looking from the outside focus not on your teeth, but directly on you and your expression.
What Should Be Considered in a Successful Smile Design?
- Facial Harmony: The anatomical harmony of the teeth with your facial features,
- Gum Level: Balanced gum level that supports aesthetic proportions,
- Light Transmittance and Naturalness: Light transmittance and texture harmony that mimics the natural structure of the tooth.
Remember: The best smile design is one that is completely undetectable!
