Gapped Front Teeth, Diastema with Newtis Lami / Gangnam Leon Dental Clinic Newtis Smile Simulation

Hello, this is Gangnam Leon Dental Clinic 😊

The front teeth, which are the first thing people notice when you smile,

are an important factor that influences your first impression.

In particular, if there is a gap between the front teeth,

the space can stand out even more among otherwise well-aligned teeth,

which can inevitably lead to aesthetic concerns.

In this post, we will take a look at a Newtis Lami case that improved the space between the front teeth

through Gangnam Leon Dental Clinic's

Newtis Smile Simulation.

Space Between the Front Teeth

:Diastema

Diastema, or a gap between the front teeth,

can occur due to various causes, including

congenital differences between jaw and tooth size, the labial frenulum,

oral habits, and gum disease.

✔️ Congenital imbalance between tooth size and jaw size

✔️ A thick or low upper labial frenulum

✔️ Abnormalities in the number of teeth, such as impacted or missing teeth

✔️ The habit of pushing the front teeth with the tongue

✔️ Problems with the bite or tooth alignment

Newtis Lami

:Diastema Improvement

After diagnosing the cause of the problematic teeth through an examination and assessing the condition of the mouth,

Newtis Lami treatment is carried out.

Newtis Lami may be considered not only for diastema

but also in the following cases.

✅ Gaps between the front teeth (diastema)

This refers to having space between the front teeth.

In particular, gaps between the front teeth are highly noticeable aesthetically,

so when this is a significant concern,

laminates may be considered.

The treatment method for diastema may vary depending on its cause and the size of the space,

including front-tooth resin or orthodontic treatment.

✅ Black triangles

These are black, triangular-shaped empty spaces

created when the gum between the teeth recedes.

They may be caused by gum recession or tooth alignment,

and after preliminary treatment based on the cause,

resin or laminates may be selected

for aesthetic improvement.

✅ Peg-shaped teeth or unbalanced tooth shapes

If the teeth are small or the shapes differ from side to side,

the tooth proportions may look awkward.

In such cases, laminates can be used

to adjust the length and width of the teeth

and improve them to achieve natural proportions.

✅ Chipped or worn front teeth

Laminates may also be considered

when the edges of the front teeth are chipped

or their shape has changed due to wear.

✅ Cases requiring improvement of the front-tooth shape

Even when the tooth alignment is relatively good,

laminates may be used when there are concerns about

the shape, angle, or size of the front teeth.

✅ Discolored front teeth

Laminates may be considered

when discoloration is difficult to improve with teeth whitening

or when only certain teeth are a different color.

Beauty Beyond Laminates,

Newtis Lami

Gangnam Leon Dental Clinic's Newtis Lami

is based on 1:1 customized personal design

and is carried out according to the following three principles.

You can preview how you will look after the procedure

through a video simulation on the day of your consultation,

which helps relieve anxiety about the outcome

and increase satisfaction and trust.

Preservation

Preservation of Natural Teeth

The treatment is carried out with consideration for

both aesthetic improvement and the natural health of the teeth.

Depending on the condition of the teeth,

only the minimum necessary reduction is performed within the required range

to preserve the healthy natural teeth as much as possible.

In-House Lab

In-House Dental Laboratory & Professional Dental Technicians

Through our in-house dental laboratory,

clinicians and dental technicians communicate closely

to produce each restoration with precision.

A customized design carefully reflects

the shape and color of the teeth and their harmony with the patient's face,

creating a natural-looking result.

Through the meticulous work of experienced professional dental technicians,

we provide Newtis Lami with a high level of satisfaction.

Newtis Lami Process

:Newtis Smile Simulation

The Newtis Lami process

is as follows.

① Detailed examination and consultation

We examine dental concerns, oral condition, and occlusion,

then establish an appropriate treatment plan.

② Preliminary photographs

Before the procedure, smile photographs are taken

from various angles, including the front and side,

so that the teeth are clearly visible

and the current condition can be accurately recorded.

③ Newtis Smile Simulation

Based on the photographs taken,

the Newtis Smile Simulation program is used

to adjust the length, shape, color, and angle of the teeth

and create a virtual design.

While viewing the screen together with the patient,

we discuss the patient's desired design

and the aspects that can actually be applied,

then revise and refine the design.

Based on the completed virtual design,

you can preview a video of how you may look after treatment.

Rather than showing only a simple front-facing image,

the simulation realistically reflects

the amount of tooth exposure, proportions, and color harmony

according to lip movement and changes in facial expression,

allowing you to experience the expected post-procedure appearance more realistically.

④ Impression taking

A precise impression is taken

for the actual procedure.

The shape of the teeth and the occlusal relationship are recorded,

while unnecessary reduction is minimized.

⑤ Fabrication of Newtis Lami

Customized Newtis Lami is fabricated

reflecting the design from

the Newtis Smile Simulation.

⑥ Placement of Newtis Lami and occlusion check

The completed Newtis Lami is placed,

and occlusion, pronunciation, lip movement, and other factors are checked.

Integrated Front-Tooth Treatment, Newtis

In addition to Newtis Lami,

we also provide treatments ranging from treatment for enamel spots (Icon Resin) and gum grafting

to tooth reshaping, gum reshaping, teeth whitening,

gum whitening, front-tooth resin treatment, and orthodontics.

Through an integrated solution for front-tooth concerns

that addresses front-tooth problems comprehensively,

we diagnose the issue

and suggest an improvement plan that is more suitable for you.
