Smile Design in Tekirdağ
Smile design is a comprehensive cosmetic dental treatment that creates an ideal smile tailored to your facial structure, lip shape, gum aesthetics, and overall appearance. Using Digital Smile Design (DSD) technology, you can preview your new smile before treatment begins, ensuring you're completely satisfied with the planned results.
At our clinic in Tekirdağ, we use modern CAD/CAM systems and digital smile design software to create personalized aesthetic treatment plans. Every patient has unique facial aesthetics, dental structure, and expectations, so we provide customized solutions rather than standard applications.
How Does Smile Design Work?
Our smile design treatment involves detailed planning and careful execution:
1. Digital Analysis and Planning
During your first appointment, we take facial photographs, digital dental models, and panoramic X-rays. Using digital smile design software, we plan the ideal smile line, tooth dimensions, color tone, and overall aesthetics. You'll see and approve the treatment results before we begin.
2. Tooth Preparation
After design approval, teeth are minimally prepared under local anesthesia. The procedure is painless. Temporary veneers are placed so you can continue your daily life with an aesthetic appearance while permanent restorations are crafted.
3. Laboratory Process
The digital design is sent to our laboratory where laminate veneers or zirconium crowns are produced using CAD/CAM technology within 5-7 days. A try-in appointment ensures perfect fit, color, and form before final placement.
4. Final Placement
Approved restorations are permanently bonded to teeth using precision bonding techniques. Bite alignment is verified and any minor adjustments are made. You receive care instructions and your smile design is complete.
