What Is Smile Design?
Smile design is a personalised approach to cosmetic dentistry focused on improving the overall appearance of your smile while maintaining natural function and facial harmony. Tooth shape, colour, alignment, gum appearance, facial proportions, and lip position are all considered when planning treatment. A smile design plan may involve teeth whitening, composite bonding, porcelain veneers, Invisalign, dental crowns, gum contouring, or tooth replacement, combined as needed.

See Your Result Before Treatment Begins
Using digital smile design, we can show you a preview of your proposed new smile before committing to treatment, giving you a clearer idea of what to expect before treatment begins.

Why Consider Smile Design?
Many patients have more than one cosmetic concern that can’t be fully addressed with a single treatment. Smile design lets us take a comprehensive view of your smile and build a plan that may address discoloured teeth, chipped or cracked teeth, uneven tooth shapes, gaps, crooked or worn teeth, missing teeth, and uneven smile lines, all together rather than one at a time.
The Smile Design Process
We start with a detailed discussion about your concerns and goals, followed by a comprehensive assessment of your teeth, gums, bite, and facial proportions. From there, we create a personalised smile design plan outlining the recommended procedures, complete the treatment phase over a series of appointments, and finish with a review to check the result and guide you on maintenance.
Making Smile Design More Affordable
Because a full smile design plan can combine several treatments, flexible finance options are available to help spread the cost. Ask us about this at your consultation.
