When Leonardo da Vinci painted
portraits, he used the principle of Divine Proportion, based on a mathematical
formula originally applied to create eye-pleasing balance in Greek and
Egyptian architecture.
Dentists use the same principle
with non-surgical cosmetic makeovers to create beautiful and enduring
smiles that harmonize with a persons age, lifestyle, ambition, and physical
appearance. We do it by looking at your smile the way an artist does.
Your smile and your face are our canvas. The proportions of the face affect
the proportions of the smile - and your smile can illuminate your face.
We consider the shape of teeth that will give your face the most pleasing
dimensions.
Stained teeth can add age to
our smiles, but a smile that is too white can look out of place on a person
in the prime of life. Our teeth tend to get shorter with wear as we get
older. Tooth lengthening is an effective solution. Laugh lines and wrinkles
can sometimes be "erased" by using dental techniques to fill
out these facial areas. And if you have a charming irregularity that's
your personal signature, we can enhance your overall smile and retain
your individuality. Your smile will look totally natural.
How do we turn artistic inspiration
into reality? Whitening is one of the simplest and most popular procedures
for revitalizing a smile. Many studies show that most of us perceive a
brighter smile to be more youthful and attractive. Veneers can be applied
to widen your teeth, lengthen them, or add thickness to broaden your smile.
Cosmetic procedures are well worth the investment to restore the proportions
your face was meant to have. Talk to us about inspired enhancements for
your smile.
Is your face perfectly proportioned?
a. Can a vertical line be drawn
from a pupil to a corner of mouth?
b. Does you face divide horizontally into thirds?
c. Does the lower third of your face divide into thirds (nose to chin)?
d. Does your face divide vertically into fifths (5x width of one eye)?
