Smile Design in Chennai: Reshape, Brighten, and Rebuild Your Smile
Not confident about your smile? Whether it is discolouration, chipped teeth, gaps, a gummy smile, or simply a shape you have never quite been happy with, cosmetic dentistry has come a long way. At Sethu's Dental House in Chrompet, Chennai, smile design is a fully digital process that lets you see a virtual model of your proposed result before any treatment begins.
What is smile design?
Smile design is a process of planning cosmetic changes to your teeth and gums using digital software and photographs of your actual smile. Instead of describing what you want and hoping for the best, you and your dentist look at a digital preview together, agree on what to change, and then work towards that plan.
​
At Sethu's Dental House, the clinic uses digital smile design software alongside an intra-oral scanner to build a precise picture of your current teeth and model proposed changes. Treatments that may then be recommended as part of a smile plan include:
​
-
Veneers — high-grade translucent porcelain or composite veneers to reshape, close gaps, or correct discolouration
-
Teeth whitening — LASER-assisted whitening that typically takes fewer sessions than conventional methods
-
Gummy smile correction — treatment for excessive gum display, carried out surgically or with precise technique depending on the case
-
Dark gum treatment — LASER gum depigmentation for dark or uneven gum pigmentation
-
Aesthetic restorations — space closure, black triangle correction, and tooth-coloured restorations that blend with surrounding teeth
-
Composite or porcelain bonding — correction of chips, cracks, and minor shape concerns
Who may consider smile design?
Smile design may be a good fit if you have one or more cosmetic concerns about your teeth or gums, want to understand your options before committing to any treatment, or are planning a specific occasion and want enough time to complete treatment before it. A consultation is the right starting point — not every concern needs extensive treatment, and the right option for you depends on your specific teeth and expectations.
What to expect ?
Your first appointment is a consultation with Dr. Sethuraman Ramadoss (MDS, Prosthodontist and Implantologist), who leads smile design cases at the clinic. An intra-oral scan and digital photographs are taken, and the digital design process begins from there. The number of appointments needed depends entirely on which treatments you choose and the complexity of your case. Nothing is done without your agreement at each step.
Why Sethu's Dental House?
he clinic is equipped with an intra-oral scanner and digital smile design software, and Dr. Sethuraman Ramadoss holds an MDS in Prosthodontics with experience across cosmetic and full-mouth rehabilitation cases. For cases involving gum work, Dr. Menaka Satish (MDS, Periodontist) and Dr. Karthik Ramakrishnan (MDS, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon) are both available within the same clinic.
