Smile Preservation And Esthetic Remodelling- An Clinical Practice - Munish Goel - Bog

A charming smile can open doors and knock down barriers that stand between you and fuller richer life. If, on the other hand, you are dissatisfied with your smile, it may be holding you back from fully embracing life and its opportunities. When planning treatment for esthetic cases, smile design cannot be isolated from a comprehensive approach to patient care. Achieving a successful, healthy and functional result requires an understanding of the interrelationship among all the supporting oral structures, including the muscles, bones, joints, gingival tissues and occlusion. A comprehensive dental examination should include evaluation of dental radiographs, mounted diagnostic models, photographic records, a thorough clinical examination and patient interview. The clinical examination should include a smile analysis and the evaluation of the teeth, occlusion, existing restorations, periodontal tissues and other soft tissues of the oral cavity. In addition to the esthetics, the functional component of the anterior teeth must be considered in treatment planning.This literature will assist interested persons in becoming updated in the broad scope of esthetic dentistry.
