Beyond “Whiter” or “Straighter”
Dr Thea Pabustan builds her smile makeover consultations around a more specific starting point than shade or alignment. Rather than asking what a patient wants to change, the conversation turns to how they would like their smile to look and read overall, a distinction that shapes every decision that follows.
How That Answer Shapes the Design
Tooth Shape and Style
A preference for a bolder, more defined look tends to guide the design toward squarer tooth shapes with a clearer edge, while a softer look leans on rounder proportions and gentler transitions between teeth.
A Plan Built Around the Individual
This is part of why no two smile makeover plans at Dental Couture look identical. Each is shaped by the person in the chair and what they are trying to achieve, rather than a single template applied across every patient.
Smile Makeover Consultations Across Melbourne’s North West
Patients booking a smile makeover consultation travel in from across the north west corridor, including Keilor, Essendon, Moonee Ponds, and Brunswick, alongside those closer to Sunbury. The starting point for all of them is the same conversation, working out how they want their smile to look before any design begins.
