The patient is team leader in deciding their smile appearance

The decisive role in creating and approving the appearance of their dentures is made by the patient. The dentist, the dental nurse and the dental technician help to facilitate this. In fact, the nurse is best cast as the patient’s ally and advocate in aesthetic matters, rather than automatically supporting the clinician’s view.

This involvement of the patient brings a feeling of connection with the rest of the dental team and with it a sense of responsibility.

This is why the aesthetic try-in visits for the prototype dentures cannot be rushed.
