Introduction The focus of dentistry in the present times is not only the prevention and treatment of diseases but on meeting the demands for better esthetics. Esthetic dentistry is emerging as one of the most progressive and challenging branches of this field But every person is not fortunate enough to have a beautiful smile. The answer to the above problem is the esthetic dentistry
Esthetic dentistry Smile designing I nterdisciplinary approach The prosthodontist is the best person to identify the quality of smile . With the advent of new materials and technologies like CAD-CAM ,dentist has a plethora of options in smile designing Introduction (Cont.) Smile Designing Restorative Orthodontic Prosthodontic Periodontal
Esthetics ( ADJ . 1798) The branch of philosophy dealing with beauty. Dental Esthetics The application of the principles of esthetics to the natural or artificial teeth and restorations. (GPT 1999) Definitions
Smile designing I s a process whereby the complete oral hard and soft tissues are studied and evaluated, and certain changes are brought about which will have a positive influence on the overall esthetics of the face. These changes are governed by the principles of esthetic dentistry .
CLASSIFICATION OF SMILE: (Solomon) Depending on the nature of labial mucous M embrane ( Solomon E.G.R) Tooth smile Papilla smile Mucosa smile Dependant on the lip component ( Solomon E.G.R) Straight smile Convex smile Concave smile
Type of smiles - classifications According to Ackerman et al Two types : The social smile / posed smile. The enjoyment smile/Unposed smile/ Duchennne smile. According to Rubin L R: Commissure smile Cuspid smile Complex smile
Type of smiles – classifications (Cont.) According to Edward 4 stages of smile: Stage I : Lips closed Stage II: Resting display Stage III: Natural smile Stage IV: Expanded smile. According to Edward Types of smile: Type I: Maxillary only Type II: Maxillary and 3mm gingiva Type III: Mandibular only Type IV:Maxillary and mandibular Type V: Neither Maxillary nor Mandibular.
COMPONENTS OF AN ESTHETIC SMILE Facial component Hard tissues Soft tissues Dental component Teeth Gingiva
FACIAL COMPONENTS Facial component Interpupillary line lips Facial features that play a vital role Esthetic line Facial features
During a relaxed 'ideal smile', the upper lip exposes the cervical aspects of the maxillary anterior teeth and interdental papillae. Up to 3 mm of gingival exposure above the cervical margins of the maxillary teeth is aesthetically acceptable . Beyond 3 mm results in a 'gummy' smile , requiring correction by orthodontic or surgical intervention to avoid visual tension . 17 Ideal 2mm gingival display 6mm gingival display Lips
E-line or esthetic line is an imaginary line connecting the tip of the nose to the most prominent portion of the chin on the profile, ideally the upper lip is 2-3mm behind and the lower lip 1 - 2 mm behind the E-line. Any change in the position of the E-line indicates the abnormality in the upper or lower lip position. 19 E-line or esthetic line

Vital Elements of Smile Design- Dental Components Tooth components Dental midline Incisal Lengths Tooth dimension Buccal corridor Zenith point Axial inclinations Interdental contact area Incisal Embrasures SPA Symmetry and balance Soft tissue components Gingival health Gingival levels and harmony Interdental embrasure Smile Line
Vertical contact interface between the 2 centrals Dental midline should be collinear with facial midline. Perpendicular to the interpupillary line and parallel to facial midline As long as the midline is parallel with the long axis of the face , midline discrepancies up to 4mm is not considered unaesthetic. But canted midlines aren’t considered esthetic. Image of smile where the facial and dental midline do not line up. 21 Dental Midline
Centre of the philtrum and the centre of the papilla match ,then the problem is due to incisal inclination. Papilla and Philtrum do not match True midline deviation. 22 Dental Midline (Cont.)
Incisal lengths( edge position) Most important determinant in smile creation . I t serves as a reference point for establishing the proper tooth proportion and gingival levels. IMPORTANT PARAMETERS Degree of tooth display . Phonetics . Patient input .
Degree of tooth display Image of the lower one third showing tooth display at rest. The display was measured to be between 2.5 to 3 mm. The normal tooth display at rest is about 2.5 to 3mm. If the overall display of teeth is less than 2.5 mm then orthodontic extrusion or orthognathic surgery has to be considered.
PHONETIC REFERENCES ‘E’ I ncisal edge should be halfway between upper and lower lip Phonetics play a part in determining maxillary central incisor design and position. ‘F’ and ‘V’ sounds are used to determine the labiolingual position and length of maxillary central incisors
The ‘M’ sound is used to achieve relaxed rest position and help evaluate the incisal display at rest position . ‘S’ or ‘Z’ sounds D etermine the vertical dimension of speech. Its pronunciation makes the maxillary and the mandibular anterior teeth come in near contact . D etermine the anterior speaking space. 26 PHONETIC REFERENCES
TOOTH DIMENSIONS Correct dental proportion is essential in creating an esthetically pleasing smile. CENTRAL DOMINANCE dictates that the centrals must be the dominant teeth in the arch, and they must display pleasing proportions. The proportions of the centrals must be esthetically and mathematically correct. T he width to length ratio = 4:5 The shape and appearance of the centrals influences the placement of laterals and canines.
Guidelines for correct proportions. Recurring esthetic dental proportion (Ward) Golden proportion (Lombardi) M Proportion ( Methot ) CHU’S Esthetic gauge
Golden Proportion First mentioned by Lombardi and later developed by Levin. When viewed from the facial ,the width of each of the anterior tooth is 60% of the width of the adjacent tooth ( 1.6 : 1 : 0.6) Central incisor is 62% wider than the lateral incisor which in turn is 62% wider than the visible portion of the canine which is the mesial half, when viewed from the front.
Recurring esthetic dental proportion (Ward) The successive width proportions when viewed from the facial aspect should remain constant as we move posteriorly from midline. This offers greater flexibility to match the tooth proportions to the facial dimensions. M PROPORTION: Methot : Computer Software CHU’S ESTHETIC GAUGE:
Note :- Centrals wider than laterals by 2-3mm Canine wider than lateral by 1- 1.5mm Canine and central are longer than lateral by 1-1.5mm Dental proportion (In short)
Buccal Corridor Negative space , which is a small space between the maxillary posterior teeth and the inside of the cheek. The greater and more pronounced this negative space the more the posterior teeth are concealed..
If the buccal corridor is excessive, ------ I ncreasing the buccal contours of the maxillary posterior restorations. If conservative additive or subtractive (i.e., esthetic contouring) techniques will not work esthetically, then orthodontics should be considered. Gives depth & mystery to the smile Indicates occlusal disturbance or inadequate restorative dentistry 34 Buccal Corridor (cont.)
Factors influencing the appearance of buccal corridor (The negative space is often accentuated when smile rejuvenation is limited to maxillary six anterior teeth) The width of the smile and the maxillary arch. The tonicity of facial muscles The position of the labial surfaces of the maxillary bicuspids. The predominance of the cuspids, particularly at the distal facial line angle. Any discrepancy between the value of the bicuspids and the anterior teeth.
Interdental contact areas & points Longest contact – between central incisors Shortest contact - between lateral & canine Interdental contact points where the interdental contact area ends
The contact points of the maxillary teeth --------- 'pink aesthetics' for patients with a high smile line (or visible cervical margins). '5 mm rule’ ----- T he distance from the contact point to the interproximal osseous crest is 5 mm or less, there is complete fill of the gingival embrasures with an interdental papilla. For every 1 mm above 5 mm, the chance of complete fill is progressively reduced by 50%. Black triangle 36 Black triangle Interdental contact areas & points (Cont.)
Interdental contact area can be moved apically to close the gap 37 Interdental contact areas & points (Cont.)
Gingival zenith or height of contour. The apex of the gingival height of contour on the anterior teeth is called zenith point. Central : distal third Lateral: central Cuspid : distal third Bicuspids : central
Nicely scalloped gingival contours -------- create a shallow reverse triangle at zenith point of lateral incisor – 0.5 – 1mm incisally. 39 Incorrect adjustment of the zenith points gives the appearance of tilted teeth. Gingival zenith or height of contour.
Incisal embrasures In an esthetic smile, the edges of the maxillary anterior teeth follow a convex or gull-wing course matching the curvature of the lower lip. Reduced incisal embrasures and leveling of the gull-wing effect ------- S traight smile line is associated with aging.
Incisal embrasures 90º between premolars in young unworn dentitions In aged / worn dentition – embrasures are smaller or disappear ( Box like ) – teeth need to be lengthened & embrasures need to be recreated 41 Smallest & sharpest between the central incisors
Tooth inclination Frontal view: The axial inclination of anterior teeth tends to incline mesially and more pronounced from central incisors to the canines. Labiolingual inclination: Maxillary central –Vertical or slightly labially Maxillary lateral incisor -Incisal edge slightly labially. Maxillary canine – Cervical area positioned labially, Cusp tip lingually angulated
Sex, age and personality Ma x illary incisors Females – R ound smooth and delicate Males – C uboidal and vigorous Youthful teeth unworn incisal edge, defined embrasures, high value Aged teeth- shorter , minimal embrasure and low value Maxillary canine Aggressive, hostile - long fang like Passive and soft Blunt, rounded, short cusp Sex Age Personality Maxillary incisors
Symmetry and balance Static symmetry Mirror image, Maxillary central incisors. Dynamic symmetry Two objects very similar but not identical. Such minor deviations and irregularities will impart a more vital, dynamic and natural effect to the smile.
Soft tissue component of smile Gingival health: Healthy gingiva: Pale pink in colour, Stippled, firm Matte finish Gingival biotype : Thin and thick Thin biotypes friable, escalating the risk of recession following crown preparation and periodontal or implant surgery.
Periodontal biotype and bioform This is particularly significant for full coverage crowns for the following reasons. Firstly, the thin gingival margins allow visibility of a metal substructure (either porcelain fused to a metal crown or implant abutment), thereby compromising aesthetics in the anterior regions of the mouth. In these circumstances, All-ceramic crowns, or ceramic implant abutments are a prerequisite to avoid aesthetic reapproval. Secondly, due to the fragility of the thin tissue, delicate management is essential for avoiding recession 1 2
Gingival level and Harmony The cervical gingival height of centrals should be symmetrical and also match to that of canines. The gingival margin of lateral incisor is 0.5mm-2mm below that of central incisors Gingival shape Maxillary lateral and mandibular incisors : Half oval /Half circular. Maxillary central and canines : Elliptical.
Interdental Embrassure Avoid black triangle. 5 mm rule
Smile line Convex smile line/Gull-wing smile line : An imaginary line along the incisal edges of the maxillary anterior teeth which should mimic the curvature of the superior border of the lower lip while smiling.---- Young patients. Reverse smile line/ concave smile line : The centrals appear shorter than the cuspids .---- Aged tooth/ Worn out tooth. Straight smile line--- worn out teeth/Aging
Color Clark stated that “color, like form, has three dimensions”. → Hue which is the name of the radiant energy. → Chroma, which is the saturation of the hue → Value, which is the relative lightness or darkness of the colour.
Properties of Colour OPACITY & TRANSLUCENCY : As light strikes a surface, it is either totally reflected, totally absorbed or a combination of both. Opaque objects reflect all or most of the light that is incident on them whereas transparent objects transmit all of the light that is incident on them. Highly translucent teeth tend to be lower in value , since they allow light to be transmitted through the teeth, while opaque teeth have higher values.
Metamerism The change in color perception of two objects under different light sources is called metamerism. This can be attributed to the difference in the radiant energy of two different wavelengths of light. The standardization of lighting condition during shade matching diminishes the effect of metamerism.
Fluorescence The emission of light by an object at a different wavelength from that of an incident light is called fluorescence . Teeth fluoresce with a stimulus in range of 340nm-410nm . This spectrum is the blue range. Based on the principle of additive color, the emitted blue light acts with the yellowness of the tooth to produce a white tooth. Fluorescing pigments incorporated in the ceramic restorations by the ceramist and in the composite restorations by the manufacturer may thus be advantageously used in altering the perception of final result.
Principles of Shade Selection Teeth to be matched must be clean . Select the shade before teeth preparation. Remove bright colors from field of view M akeup / tinted eye glasses B right gloves -N on neutral operatory walls View patient at eye level Evaluate shade under multiple light sources Shade comparisons should be made quickly to avoid eye fatigue

PERCEPTUAL ASPECTS - THE ART OF ILLUSION
PERCEPTUAL ASPECTS - THE ART OF ILLUSION The art of creating illusion consists of changing perception, to cause an object to appear different from what it is. Teeth can be made to appear smaller, larger, wider, narrower, shorter, longer, younger, older, masculine or feminine.
P rinciples of illumination P rinciple of line . P rinciple s of illumination : . Principles of line: 63 Illusion works on two basic principles Shadows create depth Light creates prominences Horizontal lines make the objects appear wider Vertical lines make the object appear longer.
ESTHETIC DIAGNOSIS TOTAL SMILE ANALYSIS Integrating various analysis like a visual, space profile and computer analysis. SPACE ANALYSIS Gauge the amount of space available during the treatment planning stage PROFILE ANALYSIS Straight orthognathic – Normal profile. Any deviation from this should be recorded and considered in treatment planning. COMPUTER ANALYSIS
Esthetic treatment planning and sequencing Treatment procedure which will be programmed or charted 1. Mock up - with soft tooth colored wax or composite resin- Applied directly in the mouth P rovide a visual three dimensional means prior to committing to treatment. The functional movements in the mouth can also be checked at this time to determine any occlusal obstruction or difficulties. 2 . Diagnostic wax-up or study casts- This wax up can be evaluated by the patient directly on the diagnostic casts of the articulator and also intraorally with the use of acrylic overlays and acetate matrices. 3 .Computer imaging- Digital imaging takes advantage of contemporary technology, with a change of arrangement, form, shape and color can be demonstrated quickly 4. Trial smile: Best method
TREATMENT
ESTHETIC CONTOURING INDICATIONS Alteration of tooth structure Correction of developmental anomalies Minor orthodontic problems Removal of stains & discolorations CONTRAINDICATIONS Hypersensitivity of teeth. Large pulp canals Thin enamel Deeply pigmented stains Susceptibility to caries Extensive anterior crowding & occlusal disharmony
Reduction is accomplished by carefully shaping the marked areas with the bulk reduction diamonds except for the lower anterior teeth. Bulk reduction in these teeth should be done with fine finishing diamonds at high speed. Final shaping on the mesial, distal, incisal and embrasure is done with the thin and the extra thin diamond points, because their shape allows for better access to these areas. This is followed by the white or green finishing stone. 71 Before and After
Smile designing with bleaching: Bleaching transforms organic substances in the stained tooth and make the teeth lighter in colour. Office bleaching of Non-vital teeth: Home bleaching : Fluorosis stained teeth: Hydrogen peroxide and sodium perborate 10-15% carbamide peroxide Anaesthetic ether+ Hydrochloric acid+ Hydrogen peroxide
Q uick , esthetic, economical . Preserve sound tooth structure Can be placed directly onto the tooth surface It is a conservative restoration Can easily change the emergence profile and angle Can alter the shapes and length of the tooth Can close diastema. Can be repaired easily Can be polished and repolished to a high shine Long lasting Not expensive treatment option Smile designing with composites
Disadvantages of direct composites. Can chip and break Can discolor if older composite used Can develop marginal leakage (Walls 1988) Can pick up stain easily in those patients who smoke and have poor oral hygiene
Considerations for preparation design for anterior teeth Preparation design for composite resins do not follow a prescribed pattern : Make it as conservative as possible , leaving as much enamel as possible for effective bonding. The preparation design for anterior composite restorations should encompass Elimination of decay, Function and longevity and Esthetic predictability . EFE
Considerations for preparation design for anterior teeth Extension for functional esthetics(EFE) is achieved using a long bevel extending a few millimeters, from the cavity margin and ending on a relatively flat area on one of the planes. The esthetic advantages are:- Successful masking of the defect Better marginal adaptation Natural transition of shade between composite and tooth Ease of finishing and texturing. 78
R emove as much as possible of the tooth structures that overlaps the adjacent tooth by contouring the labial aspect of the labially malposed tooth. This straightens the portion that overlaps the adjacent tooth and makes the long axis of teeth more parallel to each other. The effective use of opaque composites in areas having no tooth or thin palatal structure,improves the blending of the restoration. The incisal embrasure between the teeth is reopened to at least 0.25 to 0.50mm length. EFE & PLACEMENT OF COMPOSITE FOR MAL-ALIGNED CENTRAL INCISORS
I n cavities having palatal access, leaving a thin shell of enamel of facial surface is not recommended as it is difficult to blend the composite restoration with the rest of the tooth. In such cases the labial unsupported enamel is reduced and the composite is extended on the facial surface. If the carious lesion is large , then a full facial veneer preparation may be the best option for optimal esthetic results. EFE & Placement of composite for carious teeth During the placement of composite in the proximal areas, a mylar/metal strip is placed between the preparation and adjacent tooth while acid etching and bonding. A small amount of flowable composite is placed along the wall and cured. A layer of an opaque hybrid composite is placed more on the palatal half of the restoration and also in conditions where palatal wall is absent. This blocks the path of light passing through and through and avoids grey translucency to the restoration .
EFE & Placement of composites in cervical defects For proper access of the defect. Bond strength with cementum is weak M icro fill ed composites are choice of materials ; N ano composites also used A void translucent shades if possible and select the opaquer shades for better blending. Because there is a shadow created with the lip line that tends to emphasize the grey shades. 82 Before any preparation place gingival cord into the sulcus- No bevel recommended at cervical region
Discolored teeth are usually challenging to treat. The dentist has to consider the masking of the dentin surface not only at the facial surface but also at the cervical margins and incisal edges. The preparation should allow a uniform thickness of composite to create a polychromatic appearance in the final result. In cases of severe discoloration the depth of preparation should allow an additional thin layer of opaque composite to mask the dark dentin. EFE and Placement of composite for discolored teeth A facial veneer is usually preferred for such situations.
86 Placement of composite for discolored teeth
Diastema EFE & Placement of composite for closing spaces Microdontia Discrepancy between tooth size and ridge Variation in the tooth morphology Some cases an excessive frenal tissue makes it difficult for the dentist to restore this area and a frenectomy may be advised in some cases.
When diastema is small ( 2mm ) – no tooth preparation required. Diastema between 2 mm -4mm – EFE should be given on the proximal surface of the labial curvature of the tooth. The extension of preparation is close to the gingival margin and follows the contours of the interdental papilla to end on the palate- proximal line. D iastema larger than 4mm- - a similar preparation coupled with recontouring of the other proximal surface of the tooth to maintain tooth proportions and form may be required. 89 Placement of composite for closing spaces
Placement of composite for closing space. Diastema are filled in one teeth at a time . Acelluloid matrix is effectively used to get the desired contour. In the diastema, opaque composites are used to build up a palatal wall followed by placement of hybrid composites of the desired shade on the palatal and cervical aspect of the cavity. Microhybrid or microfilled composites are then used as the final layer
Esthetics with ceramics Metal ceramic and all ceramic restorations have excellent esthetic potential. All ceramic restorations are characterized by a dentin like core which makes it possible to mimic the translucency of natural teeth. B iocompatible with the gingival tissue . E xcellent marginal fit
Indications of metal ceramic crowns Tooth requiring full coverage with high demand for esthetics. Retainer for fixed partial denture. Extensively destroyed teeth as a result of caries, trauma, or existing previous restorations. . Contraindications Patients with active caries or untreated periodontal disease. Young patients with large pulp chambers. When the use of more conservative retainer is possible.
All ceramic restorations: Indications High esthetic requirement. Considerable proximal caries where the tooth can no longer be restored by composite resin. Incisal ridge reasonably intact. Favorable distribution of occlusal load. Contraindications When superior strength is required then metal ceramic crown is more appropriate. High caries index. Insufficient coronal tooth structure for support. Thin teeth faciolingually. Unfavourable distribution of occlusal load. Bruxism.

CONCL U S I ON The crafting of an ideal smile requires analyses and evaluations of the face, lips, gingival tissues, and teeth and an appreciation of how they appear collectively . Such an ideal smile depends on the symmetry and balance of facial and dental features. The color, shape, and position of the teeth are all part of the equation. Recognizing that form allows function and that the anterior teeth serve a vital role in the overall health and well being of the patient is paramount. Using a comprehensive approach to diagnosing and treatment planning of esthetics can help achieve the smile that best enhances the overall facial appearance of the patient and provides the additional benefit of enhanced oral health .
