Plainly put, an attractive smile contains teeth that flow with the lips – the two upper central teeth are the longest and gradually the teeth get shorter on both sides in unison. On the other hand, a reverse smile has upper centrals that are shorter and the surrounding teeth gradually get longer in appearance.

A reverse smile line (Fig 3) is one where the centrals are shorter than the lateral incisors either because of attrition or trauma and the incisal edges of the upper anteriors form a reverse arc as compared to the lower lip.

If so, then you may have what is known as a gingival smile line. A gingival smile line is the dental term used to describe the exposure of the upper gum tissue when smiling naturally. It is also sometimes called gummy smile, high lip line, and full denture smile.

The vital elements of smile designing include the following: Tooth components. Dental midline. Incisal lengths. Tooth dimensions. Zenith points. Axial inclinations. Interdental contact area (ICA) and point (ICP) ... Soft tissue components. Gingival health. Gingival levels and harmony. Interdental embrasure. Smile line.

The Golden Proportion follows the “rule of thirds”. Each tooth away from the midline should be two-thirds as wide as the previous tooth. For example: Measure the width of a central incisor in your mouth or on a photograph. Divide this width by the width of the lateral incisor next to it.

By correcting misalignments and improving the fit of your teeth, DSD can help reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Additionally, by improving the aesthetics of your smile, DSD can also help boost your self-esteem and confidence, leading to better oral hygiene habits overall.

There are two main types of smiles: low smile line and gingival smile line. A low smile line is generally viewed as a “normal” type of gum line where only the teeth are visible when smiling. A gingival smile line, on the other hand, is when the teeth and the upper gums are both visible when smiling.
