Evaluation and Planning: Factors such as the condition of the teeth, gum tissues, jaw structure, and facial features are examined. The smile design plan is created taking into consideration the patient’s desires and aesthetic goals.
Teeth Whitening: Teeth whitening procedures can be used to lighten or correct the color of the teeth. Additionally, special coverings such as dental crowns or veneers can be used to improve the color tone of the teeth.
Teeth Reshaping: Tooth shape is a significant factor in smile aesthetics. Various procedures can be used to correct or reshape the teeth. For example, porcelain veneers are thin coverings that are bonded to the teeth and can correct the shape and size of the teeth. Other techniques such as tooth contouring or bonding can also be used to correct tooth shape.
Teeth Straightening: Orthodontic treatment options for correcting crooked, misaligned, or spaced teeth can be part of smile design. Different orthodontic appliances such as traditional braces, clear aligners, or lingual braces can be used.
Gum Reshaping: Gum tissues are also taken into consideration during smile design. Asymmetric or irregular gum lines can be corrected through gum reshaping or surgical interventions.
Dental Crowns and Veneers: Dental crowns and veneers are aesthetic dental materials applied to the front surfaces of the teeth to improve their shape, size, color, and arrangement. These coverings are thin layers specially prepared and bonded to the front surface of the teeth. While porcelain crowns are known for their durability, natural appearance, and stain resistance, composite veneers can be a more cost-effective option.
Implants: Dental implants can be used to replace missing teeth. Dental implants are titanium screw-shaped structures that represent artificial tooth roots, and they are supported by porcelain or ceramic dental prostheses placed on top of them. This way, missing teeth are replaced, and both the aesthetics and functionality of the smile are improved.
Smile Line and Tooth Symmetry: During smile design, it is important to arrange the teeth in a harmonious and symmetric manner. The length, position, and alignment of the teeth are adjusted to suit the facial features and smile line.

These information reflect the general process. However, the process can be different for each patient, and the stages can vary depending on the doctor’s evaluation and the patient’s needs.
