More than the smile
Orthodontics & facial aesthetics in balancing the profile
In the captivating lecture “More than the Smile,” dentists Dr Sheila Li and Dr Millie Morrison invite fellow dental professionals into the fascinating world of orthodontics and facial aesthetics. This thought-provoking presentation delves into the art of achieving a harmonious balance in the patient profile, going beyond the conventional of focusing solely on the teeth in the smile.
With their wealth of expertise and insights, Drs Sheila and Millie unravel the synergistic relationship between orthodontics and facial aesthetics, revealing how these two disciplines can work in perfect harmony. Through captivating case studies and interactive discussions, dentists will gain a deeper understanding of the profound impact that orthodontics can have on enhancing facial aesthetics and vice-versa. Dentists will discover how adjustments to tooth positioning and soft tissue positioning can radically transform the patient’s smile and entire facial profile. This lecture encourages dentists to embrace a comprehensive approach to patient care, recognising the powerful influence that both treatment modalities can have on facial harmony.
To demonstrate the interplay between dental occlusion, facial structure, and overall appearance, Dr. Sheila will perform a live demonstration on how the final orthodontic result can be balanced with soft tissue fillers.
Join Dr Sheila Li and Dr Millie Morrison in this informative and live journey as they map the path towards achieving balance and beauty in the patient profile. By expanding their horizons beyond the smile, dentists will gain the knowledge and inspiration to unlock new possibilities in their practice, ultimately transforming the lives of their patients.
