Restoring Confidence with Precision: A Smile Makeover for Smeralda
For many patients, the impact of a smile reaches far beyond aesthetics. It’s about confidence, self-expression, and feeling at ease in every interaction. This was true for Smeralda, who came to us struggling with a gummy smile and short-looking teeth that made her feel self-conscious—both in photos and in person.
At the Enamel Clinic, our approach is always patient-centred and minimally invasive, with an emphasis on achieving harmony rather than simply making changes. In Smeralda’s case, we developed a personalised treatment plan that would subtly enhance her natural features while preserving the individuality of her smile.
The Solution: Precision Meets Aesthetics
Using the latest in digital dentistry and laser technology, we set out to reshape Smeralda’s smile with care and precision. Our treatment combined two powerful tools:
- Digital Smile Design (DSD): This cutting-edge planning system allowed us to map out the ideal proportions of Smeralda’s smile, ensuring that the end result would be both functional and visually balanced.
- Waterlase Gum Recontouring: A gentle, laser-based procedure that allowed us to reshape the gum line with exceptional accuracy and minimal discomfort.
Together, these technologies gave us the ability to tailor every millimetre of the outcome—enhancing the symmetry between teeth, gums, and facial features while maintaining the natural charm of her smile.
A Subtle but Transformative Change
The results speak for themselves. With her new smile, Smeralda feels more confident and comfortable—on camera and in everyday life. This case highlights the power of modern aesthetic dentistry: when artistry meets innovation, the outcome is not just a new smile, but a renewed sense of self.
