In the field of dentistry, an exciting development is taking place - the smile design within dental prosthesis design. Dental professionals nowadays are focusing more on not just replacing missing teeth but also creating beautiful smiles. The smile design in dental prosthesis is a complex yet fascinating process. It involves careful analysis of a patient's facial features, lip shape, and the overall harmony of the face. Dentists use advanced digital technology to plan the perfect shape, size, and color of the prosthetic teeth.   This new approach aims to provide patients with a natural - looking smile that not only restores their oral function but also enhances their confidence. With the combination of art and science in dental prosthesis design, more and more patients are enjoying the benefits of this personalized smile - creating process, bringing new hope and satisfaction ...

When replacing missing teeth, one faces a crucial decision between implants and prosthetics, which impacts smile and quality of life long - term. This paper explores dental prosthetics (types include complete and partial dentures, removable with pros like affordability, fast production, improved function, customizability, and cons like discomfort, instability, friction, gum irritation, need for maintenance and adaptation) and dental implants (metal screws surgically placed in jawbone, acting as roots for crowns etc., with advantages of stability, similar function to natural teeth, jawbone structure maintenance, easy maintenance and long - term use, but disadvantages of high cost, long process and requirements for good health and sufficient jawbone). The choice depends on health, budget and preference. Implants are good for those seeking permanent solutions, while prosthetics are for ...

As technology advances and people's consumption continuously upgrades, patients visiting dental clinics are no longer confined to mere dental diagnosis and treatment. Instead, they have higher demands for dental aesthetics. Dental clinical diagnosis and treatment is constantly evolving towards digitalization, precision, and minimally invasive approaches. Mastering and applying digital minimally invasive technology has become an essential skill for dental clinicians. Recently, at the annual meeting of the European Society of Cosmetic Dentistry (ESCD), Dr. Pokpong prominently put forward the precise treatment concept of achieving minimal preparation volume through face-driven design in denture restoration. This has sparked widespread attention and intense discussions in the dental clinical field. For veneer restoration, tooth preparation should adhere to the principle of a...
