What does smile design mean?
Smile design is a discussion of your appearance goals and a plan for any appropriate procedures. It is not one fixed treatment or a reason to treat every tooth.
All treatmentsTREATMENT OPTIONS
Smile Design & Makeover
Bring your smile goals together in a considered conversation. A smile makeover is an individual plan, rather than a fixed package.
Discuss smile design & makeover
02
Define your priorities
Discuss the details you would like to change: colour, shape or the appearance of individual teeth. Explain what you prefer to keep as well as what concerns you.
03
Assess the available options
Ask for the rationale and alternatives for each proposed procedure. A design discussion should include oral health, preservation of natural teeth and practical care needs.
04
Review the proposed plan
Agree how the design will be explained before treatment. Confirm the teeth involved and any irreversible changes; a visual proposal is not a guarantee of the final result.
05
Maintenance and appointments
The plan should explain the care and review needs of each procedure, not just the appearance goals. Request a staged schedule and itemised costs.
06
Questions for your clinician
Discuss your priorities, the condition of your teeth, alternatives and the scope of each proposed procedure. Ask for a staged plan instead of assuming every tooth needs treatment.
QUESTIONS
A little more clarity.
Can I choose this topic before knowing what treatment I need?
Yes. Choose the topic to start a conversation. Your clinician will assess the options before a treatment decision.
Does smile design mean veneers on every tooth?
No. Ask for the purpose and alternatives of each proposed procedure rather than assuming a standard package.
Is a visual design a guaranteed result?
No. Discuss how the proposal relates to the clinical plan and what limitations or changes may arise.
