Smile concerns can affect more than the teeth. They may influence facial balance, perceived age, confidence, speech dynamics, and how comfortable a patient feels smiling in photos, social settings, and professional situations.
Potential Cosmetic Dentistry Considerations
- Smile design and facial aesthetic analysis
- Color, shape, width, length, and symmetry of teeth
- Gum position and gum display
- Bite relationship and long-term function
- Porcelain veneers, crowns, implants, or full mouth reconstruction when clinically appropriate
