Abstract

 A systematic approach is required to evaluate, diagnose and resolve esthetic problems predictably. It is of outmost importance that the final result is not dependent only on the looks alone. Our ultimate goal as clinicians is to achieve satisfying composition in the smile by creating an arrangement of various esthetic elements. This article shows the various principles that govern the art of smile designing. The literature search was done using PubMed search and Medline. The article will give a basic knowledge to the reader to bring out a functional stable smile.  Analysis of smile is important in the diagnosis and treatment planning phases of aesthetic dentistry.
