• First, the patient’s tooth structure and shape are examined. If it is necessary, the disorders in the tooth sequence are corrected with orthodontics.
• In the next stage, the gaps between the patient’s teeth are closed with diastema closure (especially without cutting the teeth).
• If the gum is not healthy; gingival problems and size irregularities will be fixed.
• Necessary harmony between teeth and lip/cheek is achieved.
• If there are broken or crooked teeth, they are treated with laminate veneers, ceramic veneers or zirconium veneers.
• Broken teeth can be restored with aesthetic composite restorations without cutting.
• If there are color differences in the teeth, whitening is applied to the discolored teeth.
