Smile design in Antalya.
Smile design is not a material — it is the planning step in front of one. Photographs, a digital scan and your face decide the length, width and line of the teeth before a single restoration is made.
What the design step actually does
Teeth are not designed on a screen in isolation; they are designed against a lip line, a smile width, the midline of a face that is never perfectly symmetrical, and the way you speak. The digital design turns that into a shape you can look at — and, in the mock-up stage, wear — before anything permanent happens.
It also sets the honest limits. A design cannot move a jaw, and covering a bite problem with ceramic stores up trouble. Where orthodontics or gum treatment would give the better result, that is said plainly, even when it means a longer plan.
How the week runs
- Consultation and recordsPhotographs, video of you speaking and smiling, a digital scan and, where teeth are compromised, an X-ray or CBCT.
- The designTooth proportions are drawn against your facial reference lines and reviewed with you. Changes at this stage cost nothing but a conversation.
- Mock-upThe design is transferred into your mouth as a temporary trial. You see it, speak with it, photograph it, and ask for changes.
- Preparation and fittingTeeth are prepared conservatively, the restorations are made, then tried in and bonded. The bite is refined at the end, and the case is photographed for your record.
Restorations, not miracles
Most smile designs here are built from lithium-disilicate veneers, with crowns only where a tooth is already heavily restored. The number of teeth involved is a design decision — a result that only involves the teeth people actually see is often better than one that treats sixteen because sixteen was the package.
Afterwards
You leave with the shade record, the design file and photographs of every stage. If a restoration ever needs replacing — here or anywhere else — that record is what makes a match possible. Hygiene visits twice a year, and a night guard if you grind.
Why the week matters
The design and mock-up days are deliberately spaced, because a smile you have worn for two days tells you more than one you approved on a screen for ten minutes. Antalya makes those in-between days easy to spend: the clinic sits in Lara, minutes from the beach and about 15 minutes from the airport.
