TREATMENT DETAIL
Smile
A multi-stage aesthetic and functional planning process that takes into account the teeth, gums, lip movement, facial proportions, bite, and the patient’s expectations.
OVERVIEW
Not a single template, but a plan consisting of personal measurements and preferences.
Smile design is not a single procedure; it is a planning umbrella that determines the sequence of necessary treatments based on photography, intraoral scanning, and clinical examination.
Lip structure, visible tooth count, gum line, facial proportions, vertical dimension, age, phonetics, and individual aesthetic preferences are examined. An “authoritative” or “feminine” tooth template is not imposed based on profession or gender; decisions are made according to individual anatomy and consent. The plan may include whitening, bonding, veneers, crowns, orthodontics, gum reshaping, root canal treatment, or implants. Professional facial and intraoral photos along with digital models are used to discuss potential outcomes; digital previews do not guarantee exact results.

EVALUATION
How is suitability determined?
Treatment selection is made by evaluating clinical examination, necessary imaging, and personal expectations together.
01
Face and smile
Lip movement, smile line, facial proportions, and tooth visibility during speech are recorded.
02
Teeth and gums
Color, shape, alignment, restorations, gum line, and health status are examined.
03
Function and expectations
Occlusion, bruxism, maintenance ability, and the individual’s expectations for change are discussed.
“Smile design is not about selecting a prefabricated tooth shape; it is about uniting health, function, and personal expectations in a shared plan.”
Dr. Ediz Cem Türk
TREATMENT PROCESS
Step by step process
01
Records
Professional photos, intraoral scans, and necessary records are taken.
02
Analysis
Health requirements, aesthetic goals, and treatment options are prioritized.
03
Preview
The plan is discussed through digital visualization or intraoral try-in where suitable.
04
Phased application
Approved treatments are performed in the designated order, starting with conservative approaches.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Detailed answers
It is a planning process that brings together multiple aesthetic and functional data points to sequence the required dental treatments into a shared plan.
Smile design is holistic planning that evaluates tooth color, form, and alignment alongside gum level, lip movement, facial proportions, occlusion, and speech. Digital photographs and intraoral scanning allow for precise measurement of current conditions and visualization of options. The plan may include whitening, composite bonding, orthodontics, veneers, crowns, periodontal aesthetics, root canal therapy, or implants; not everyone requires the same procedures. Age, lifestyle, and personal preferences can be discussed, but tooth forms are not imposed based on gender or occupational stereotypes. Digital preview is a communication tool and does not guarantee identical results on biological tissue.
It can be considered for individuals who are dissatisfied with tooth color, shape, alignment, or gum display, and whose oral health is suitable for evaluation.

Purely aesthetic procedures are not initiated before active disease is controlled; certain expectations may not be achievable due to biological limitations.

Sometimes only scaling or whitening is sufficient, while in other cases orthodontics, bonding, veneers, or crowns may be required.
