Clinical approach
Aesthetic dental planning should begin with a complete assessment of the teeth, gums, bite and supporting structures.
Natural-looking aesthetics
Treatments are planned to achieve proportion, facial integration and results consistent with the individual characteristics of each patient.
Dental preservation
Whenever the diagnosis permits, conservative alternatives are prioritised and intervention on healthy dental structure is kept to the minimum necessary.
Function and stability
Aesthetics are assessed together with the bite, periodontal support, chewing function and the long-term maintenance requirements of the restorations.
