Esthetic restorations and smile designing
A review
Keywords:
artistry, esthetics, repair, treatment planAbstract
In modern practice of dentistry, it is no longer acceptable to just repair, individual teeth. The public still regards teeth as an important part of chewing, but today the focus of many adults has shifted towards the esthetics. According to the survey, appearance of teeth is found to be more important to women than men. The level of aesthetic requirement has increased over the past decade, and this has made it necessary for dentist to explore the field in order to satisfy the existing demands in the field. Dental art does not occur automatically. The dentist must purposely and carefully incorporate it into the treatment plan. This artistry tries to soften the marks imposed upon the face of time and enables people to face their world with renewed enthusiasm and confidence. Research in the field of esthetic dentistry still continues.
