Smile Design

Your smile is as unique as you are and so we spend time helping you to understand what smile will best suit you.

Some people have a clear idea of the smile they want to achieve and often bring in pictures that they’ve found on the internet. Other people want to regain the smile they had in their youth, old pictures can be a great help here but also family pictures of brothers, sisters, sons or daughters.

To create the design we use a variety of tools – we have cameras, digital scanners and software to help us design and visualise the end result. We can then 3-D print models of the new smile and use these to help you experience the end result with a smile preview.

A smile preview is only temporary, it fits over the top of your teeth and allows you to preview the planned design. You are invited to critique and make any changes that you feel appropriate. We can take photos so that you can consult with family and friends – all this is done without doing any damage to the teeth!

When you are happy with the smile preview this becomes our blueprint and we recreate this design into your new, finished smile.

    Matt Snowdon
  • “Before finding Dovetail, I’d avoided dentists for years due to bad experiences, but right from the start, i was made to feel relaxed and cared for. I couldn’t be happier with my implants, they have literally changed my life for the better, I can’t thank Rob and Kelly and the rest of the staff enough for helping me through this transformation. I’d highly recommend Dovetail to anyone looking for first class dental care.”

    Lynn Lavender
  • “My personal experience with Rob and the team has been outstanding. I have a round trip of 280 miles. its worth every mile. It’s been a long journey due to my work commitments. However the outcome was worth every trip. I will be part of the Dovetail family for ever.”

    Mark Glynn
  • “After several years of disappointing dental treatment resulting ultimately in failed implants I was very sceptical of putting my faith in yet another dentist. Within a couple of visits to Dovetail, they renewed my confidence & discussed possible solutions. After a comprehensive examination & prognosis, clearly explained & described, I started on a course of corrective treatment. Both Rob & Rachel were very instructive & reassuring throughout.”

    John Newbould
  • “Amazing job! And what a difficult job for Rob and Rachel. I can honestly say no one apart from home and work (who knew all about my decision to have my top teeth replaced) realise my teeth belong to the dedicated team work of both these two new friends of mine. I have after check visits and feel part of the Dovetail family. Thank you all for keeping my huge smile exactly the same and enabling me to still talk with exactly the same speed. If in doubt believe me trust the company to help you.”
