Design Smile

Design smile : Beautiful teeth-Beautiful smile

Design smile is the technique that achieves a refresh or redesign of the smile, with the purpose of improving and harmonising it with the lips, the gums, and the rest of the face.

“The smile it's a curve that sets everything straight.”

We have come a long way from the moment that someone had to come to terms with, broken, stained and crooked arranged teeth. The aesthetic improved teeth now look more natural and is more long lasting. The revolution in technology and materials justifies this fact. Now we combine science and art to create a perfect smile for you. So begins the design and and the reconstruction of the smile.

Design Smile: Stages

Initially, we get pictures of face and teeth of the person concerned, as well as prints  of the initial situation of the mouth of the.

We also do measurements of the personas shown in the photos to the right.

Using these measurements we determine the slope of the μασητικού level of the teeth, as well as with the golden ratio we calculate the dimensions that need to have teeth, so that they fit harmoniously with the dimensions of the face.

Then in the plaster casts of teeth using special candle give the desired shape and size(diagnostic wax). This can be imprint and move the teeth using acrylic special for this occasion (mock-up). So, the interested party may in advance to understand what could become the teeth and to do any interventions wants( giving us pictures of some smiles like), so that the final result's liking.

 

Cutting Intervals

A question that I recently received was about the shapes of the spaces of an inverted "V" between the cutting edges of the teeth. These spaces are called the cutting intervals. The right side picture of the smile that follows shows these areas in more detail. The cutting intervals are the most important elements when designing a smile. Many of the features that give a smile is embedded in the shapes and depths of these small triangular negative spaces.

In fact, in a smile that looks completely worn out, old, fake, or just plain wrong, if you change only the outline of the cutting intervals, is transformed into a beautiful smile. These percentages reflect a good starting point for the calculation of the depth of cutting intervals in relation to the length of contact of the teeth. The depth of cutting intervals between the two front teeth is usually 10% -20% of the area of contact of two teeth. The depth of the cutting intervals between the next two teeth are usually a little larger and it keeps going a little bit deeper as we move more towards the back teeth. This is a feature of the natural teeth.

Patients often have the perception that the cutting intervals will have to be very shallow, and that their appearance so it is more flattering. Wrong!

At smiles in style “Hollywood”, the spaces are shallow and, if overdone, can be very fake. This is an old interpretation of the smile “Hollywood”, when the teeth look like a movie star, where all the shapes are the same. The new interpretation of the “Hollywood” has more to do with the character of the smile and the unique appearance of the individual. Be sure to settle in and accept that you may have some cutting intervals between the teeth to avoid an overly fake smile.

The men have more shallow cutting intervals from the women. A woman who wants a small and shallow cutting intervals must be warned that this is a male trait. Also, you need to know, that when we are children, the cutting intervals is more deep, and as we grow, destroy the cutting edges of the front teeth in the us, making the cutting intervals smaller and more shallow. So, we have the appearance of a more mature smile in contrast with a more youthful smile. The young lady smiles have the deeper intervals, and these add, and other features, as sexy and exotic look. With a thin disk of diamond, I can get an old smile and rewrite it in a youthful or sexy smile.

The Shape Of A Tooth

The teeth they consist of a series of fiber angles, which are marked with green color in the photo, and create areas on the tooth, which reflect and deflect the light. Can be completely changed not only the shape of a tooth, changing the angles , but also the rotation, axial tilt, and the proportions of the tooth. I can do a weak tooth to look wide and a crooked tooth to look straight to the handling of fiber angles.

To be able to understand the perspectives and has the ability to manipulate to create different shapes of teeth, is one of the most important skills you can possess a cosmetic dentist. Having this ability, the dentist has the power to change the appearance of temporary veneers of different smiles in the moment, leaving patients to experience different appearances before the porcelain veneers manufactured by the laboratory.

Also, it allows the dentist to change the appearance of a natural tooth or old crown and sides with the configuration of the περιγράμματός them in different shapes. The ability to see the angles of the teeth allows the dentist to see what is wrong with each tooth in the smile and gives you the knowledge of what we need to do to fix it.

The most mature and male smiles have straight lines that create a more rectangular shape to the teeth. Most of the women's teeth are more rounded corners and “full” lines. The curvature of the corner can create a more sexy appearance to the smile.
The traditional “Hollywood” smile, has a less rounded corners.

Think about the most common comment about the teeth of a person who has bad sides: "they Look like gum." i.e. rectangular pieces of white mastic. The lines of a piece of chewing gum is very simple. The widest point of a chewing gum is also in the center of it . This creates a bulky appearance. People, fortunately, are moving away from the desire traditional white straight “Hollywood” look and move towards a more rounded corners that give it more character and personality to the smile. Notice the roundness of the corners of the smile of the girl in the photo. It is representative of a central area with a youthful and sexy appearance . The shape of the side creates a flirty look and the axial inclination of the canines in relation to the italic forms, the depth of cutting intervals, creating an exotic appearance.

Appearance of the teeth

As people grow older they are becoming less teeth, when the lips are at rest and when smiling!! The front teeth wear out - and more close and at the same time, the gravity pulls the upper lip, causing it to hang down over the teeth. When the smile is old, does not appear the teeth inside of the lips ,when they are at rest (Rest) and less teeth, when people smile. 

There are some factors, which can have a positive impact on the reduced appearance of teeth during rest and a full smile.          

A common solution today that the problem is is the dermal fillers(fillers) placed by plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and now also by dentists in the upper lip.  

If, however, the fillers are placed without regard to the effect on the total smile, can result in premature aging of the smile. Instead of making the patient look more young and beautiful, it adds years to the face . 

If you don't show too much teeth in a full smile, then it may be a good choice to lengthen your teeth.

However, there are some factors that determine whether a patient is a good candidate for larger teeth. All the teeth cooperate in the mouth as a system with the muscles of mastication and the Temporomandibular Articulation (TMJ). It is necessary for the cosmetic dentist to examine all parts of the system, and not to extend arbitrarily those front teeth, or else you may increase the tendency for complications.
