Smile Design: A Team Driven Approach

Using the Dento-Facial Esthetic Diagnosis System

1 Day Lecture | 7 CE Hours

Synopsis

The goal of every esthetic dentist is to complete each case with predictable, outstanding results, and have patients who are equally satisfied with the outcome. Even with a "clinically successful" result, the patient may still be unhappy with the esthetics. To consistently achieve outstanding esthetic results, it is imperative to thoroughly understand Dento-facial Esthetic Diagnosis, which includes dento-facial and gingival esthetics, and the position of the dental structures in relation to facial features. Consistent satisfaction also requires excellent communication to help each patient understand their situation and goals; and implementing a system to record this information and blend it with our own esthetic preferences and goals. In this highly practical course, Dr. Ruiz presents the "Dento-facial Esthetic Diagnosis System." Principles of esthetic diagnosis, treatment planning, patient education & motivation will be presented. This course provides practical strategies and techniques that are easy to implement, and will improve treatment acceptance and patient satisfaction.
