Smile in Orthodontics: Review
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 10
Abstract
Aristotle said "Beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of introduction". A statement that is true nowadays where attractive people have a much better chance of being successful. Dentists and orthodontists can greatly contribute to enhancing patient's smile, appearance, and subsequently self-confidence. The increase in adult orthodontic treatment demand over the last few years, children and adolescents still comprise the majority of the orthodontic patient population. Within this younger population, there has been a shift from traditional treatment goals, such as ideal occlusion and cephalometric standards, to include goals embodying principles of micro-esthetics and soft tissue harmony. It is important for orthodontists to make every effort to develop a harmonious balance that will produce the most attractive smile possible for each patient treated.
