What is Smile Privé?

Smile Privé is a personalised smile enhancement approach offered at Gangnam One Day Dental Clinic. Instead of treating one tooth in isolation, the dentist assesses tooth colour, shape, size, alignment, proportions and gum line, then builds a plan that may include veneers, whitening, gum contouring, crowns and digital smile design. Not every patient needs every component; the plan follows the examination.

What Smile Privé covers

Smile Privé is aimed at patients who want the whole smile to look balanced, not just one tooth fixed. The assessment covers tooth colour, shape, size, alignment and proportions, and how the teeth sit against the gums and lips.

From there, the plan selects from familiar treatments. Many plans centre on dental veneers, but some patients need only whitening or a small gum adjustment.

  • Dental veneers to change shape, size and colour
  • Teeth whitening to brighten natural teeth
  • Gum contouring for an uneven or high gum line
  • Dental crowns where a tooth needs structural support
  • Digital smile design to preview proportions

How the plan is designed

Gangnam One Day Dental Clinic has run a Digital Smile Design centre since 2015. Photos and intraoral scans are used to map the smile line and tooth proportions before any treatment, so you can discuss the proposed look with the dentist.

Restorations are made in the clinic's in-house Oneday Lab with CAD/CAM milling, which can shorten the time between design and fitting. For a step-by-step view of design, see digital smile design.

Who Smile Privé suits

It suits adults who are unhappy with the overall colour, shape or proportion of their smile and would like one coordinated plan. Patients with active cavities, gum disease or significant tooth damage are treated for those first.

FAQ

Smile Privé: common questions

Is Smile Privé the same as veneers?
Not exactly. Smile Privé is a personalised smile enhancement approach. Veneers are often part of it, but the plan may also include whitening, gum contouring, crowns or digital smile design, or only some of these, depending on what your examination shows.
How much does Smile Privé cost?
Cost depends on which treatments are included, how many teeth are treated, the materials chosen and the complexity of the design. Gangnam One Day Dental Clinic gives an estimate after reviewing your photos and X-rays on WhatsApp and confirms the price after examination.
How many visits does Smile Privé take?
It depends on the components in your plan. Whitening or a small gum adjustment may take one visit, while several veneers or crowns usually take two or more. Because restorations are made in the in-house lab, some steps can be completed the same day in suitable cases.
Can I choose the colour and shape of my teeth?
Yes, within what looks natural for your face and works with your bite. The proposed design is shown digitally first, so you can discuss shade, length and shape with the dentist before treatment begins, and request changes at that stage.
What is the difference between Smile Privé and Smile X?
Both are named, personalised smile enhancement approaches offered by the clinic and can draw on similar treatments. The dentist explains how each option applies to your case and which one fits your goals during consultation.
