Different Perspectives of Treatment Planning
Even if we divide dentistry into specialities, it is necessary to look at the phenomenon as a whole. Anamnesis, diagnosis, treatment options, surgical preparation of the infrastructure, combination of hard tissue (bone)&soft tissue(mucosa), functional fit and aesthetics. Achieving such a journey is only possible with teamwork.
To make a smile design; it is necessary to see the deficiency, understand the situation and to know the ideal outcome.
Every detail should be paid attention to in order for the aesthetics to be close to perfection during and after the surgical procedure. The effects of local and systemic factors should be planned as a whole. The perfect plan is possible to determine the negative factors that will affect the result over time.
- From stem cell to immune response,
- From geometric design to function,
- From emotions to hormones,
- Everything from biomaterial to biological compatibility should be considered in treatment planning.
In order to turn your smile designs into a sincere smile, it is necessary to see the whole very well.
