Mark’s story

Mark’s teeth had taken a lot of wear. Several were chipped or broken down, the edges were uneven and the shade had darkened, and it showed whenever he smiled.

In his before photo he barely opens his mouth to smile. The front teeth had worn down flat and short, with chips along the edges, so there was not much to show. The after photo is a proper grin, sunglasses still on his head, and the teeth are long enough to show again.

He chose a full set of premium zirconia crowns. Each tooth was rebuilt to a proper length and shape, so the smile is even again and strong enough for everyday wear.

A natural design in BL2 keeps it believable: bright, but with the gentle variation and edges of real teeth.

The design choices

Why Mark chose shade BL2 and a natural design

Every UK Smiles patient picks her own shade and design with the dentist before anything is made. Here is what Mark’s choices mean and why they suited her.

Shade

BL2 Bright

WhitestMore natural →

The six most popular shades are shown here. The full chart runs to more than 20, so there is a match for every complexion.

One step down from the whitest shade on the chart. Bright enough to look freshly whitened, with just enough warmth to still read as teeth rather than paper. Our most requested shade.

Why it suited Mark: BL2 gives Mark a clearly brighter smile while keeping enough warmth to look natural against his skin tone and beard.

Natural

Like your own teeth, on their best day

Centrals a touch longer than the laterals, softly rounded corners, canines with a gentle point and a smile line that curves with your lip. Small differences between teeth are kept on purpose: that is what reads as real.
Soft

Rounded, gentle, friendly

Fuller, more oval teeth with rounded edges all the way along and no sharp corners anywhere. The smile line curves gently and the canines are softened rather than pointed. Warm rather than striking.
Hollywood

Square, straight, bold

Squarer teeth with straight edges, all the same length, sitting in a flat, even line. Corners are crisp and the canines are squared off to match. Symmetrical and unmistakably done, for people who want the change to show.

Each tooth is shaped with the small variations real teeth have: slightly rounded corners, a soft curve along the smile line and a little translucency at the biting edges. The result looks like a great version of your own teeth rather than a row of identical white blocks.

Why it suited Mark: The natural design keeps slight differences between teeth and soft, translucent edges, so a full set of crowns still reads as his own teeth.
