Setting the Stage: Smile Analysis and Smile Design
- Title of the activity: Setting the Stage: Smile Analysis and Smile Design
- Term of the activity: Spring 2025 (Janurary)
- Name of sponsoring organization: Dental Practice Management
- Details of the activity (e.g., where, when): Lecture room A, January 2025 at lunchtime.
- What you learned: I learned how important it is to craft the perfect smile by working hand-in-hand with your patient. Provide realistic expectations while always looping the patient in.
- How the activity relates to coursework or your career goals: providing patients with an aesthetic smile really helps them build confidence and is something I used to find daunting. Listening to Dr. Weierbach breakdown his process into step-by-step and easy-to-digest tidbits and “start by visualizing the end goal”, really helped in building my confidence for my future dentist career.
