For this reason, the treatment that the patient will need within the framework of the smile design is determined after the preliminary examination. Facial features, gender, age and expectations of patients who want to apply for smile design treatment are considered. In this way, it is possible to complete the transactions more healthily.

Many factors have importance in analyzing smile design. Such as lip level, length of teeth, the harmony of lips during smiling, tooth color, and tooth alignment. Each one has great importance in deciding on treatment.
While designing the smile, the aesthetics of the area formed by the teeth (white aesthetics) and the aesthetics of the area formed by the gums (pink aesthetics) are evaluated. For this purpose, first of all, the level of the gums on the photograph should be considered and which teeth will be included in the design. Afterward, gingival bone levels of the teeth are examined clinically and radiographically. Then the treatment plan is clarified.
When smiling, the level of the gums and their symmetrical appearance are as important as the appearance of the teeth. At this point, it is necessary to intervene in the gums, preferably with a laser. If only the intervention on the gums is sufficient, the procedure can be performed with a diode laser. But a more advanced arrangement is needed; hard tissue or a combined laser device is required. Hard tissue lasers are also more preferred for post-procedure comfort.
The number of sessions may vary according to the current condition of the patient and the treatments to be performed. The treatment is sometimes completed in two sessions and sometimes in 3-4 appointments.
