Ryan’s story

Ryan had lost some of his front teeth, and others were broken down and stained, so the gaps showed clearly every time he smiled.

Of all the smiles on this page, Ryan’s was one of the furthest from where he wanted it. In his before photos the front teeth are a mix of gaps, dark edges and teeth worn down to stumps, and his smile in the full-face photo is small and careful. The after photos are the same man, grown a moustache, with a smile that fills his face.

His treatment rebuilt the whole smile, replacing what was missing and restoring the length and shape of the teeth around it.

He chose a natural design in BL3. The result is a full, even and bright smile with no gaps, that still looks like his own teeth.

The design choices

Why Ryan chose shade BL3 and a natural design

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

Shade

BL3 Bright, warm

  1. BL1
  2. BL2
  3. BL3
  4. B1
  5. A1
  6. A2

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.

The softest of the bleach shades. Clearly whiter than most natural teeth, but with a warmth that sits comfortably against darker hair, tanned skin and everyday daylight.

Why it suited Ryan: BL3 is a clear, bright step up from his old teeth while keeping a little warmth, so the change looks fresh rather than stark.

Design

Natural

  • Chosen

    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 Ryan: The natural design keeps slight differences between teeth and softer edges, so a full rebuild still reads as real teeth.
