What is the smile design?

      The smile design is the combination of aesthetic principles that make facial aesthetics compatible with the dentogingival structures .

These aesthetic concepts were created with information gathered from cases, diagnostic moulds, photographic records, scientific dimensions, and fundamental aesthetic beauty principles. The digital smile design starts with properly captured photos. It allows for a comprehensive workflow that simulates the patient's treatment process. Facial application is generally completed by applying guidelines which standardized parameters are improved for the front and profile look of the face. The process of designing a smile relates to various anatomic areas concerned in the process such as teeth, gingiva, mucous membranes, lips and skin based on symmetry, shape and golden ratios.
