Designing a Smile with Invisalign | BEFORE & BEYOND EP3

Welcome back to Episode 3 of Before & Beyond – our video series where we take you behind the scenes of real dental cases and walk you through the thinking behind each treatment. In this episode of Before and Beyond, Dr Tiffany from Dental Designs Clinic walks through a comprehensive Invisalign treatment plan. She explains detailed case planning, aesthetic considerations, and the step-by-step process of customising aligner-based orthodontic care.

About The Video

In this educational video, Dr Tiffany discusses a real patient case involving Invisalign treatment. She outlines how she evaluates the smile from multiple angles, including tooth protrusion, rotation, crowding, and bite misalignment. Using digital simulations, she carefully plans tooth movements while considering aesthetic harmony and oral health. Her patient-centered approach emphasises personalisation, with adjustments tailored to the individual’s facial profile, preferences, and long-term goals.

Dr Tiffany also elaborates on techniques such as dental expansion, shaving (IPR), and root torque to achieve an ideal smile without compromising dental structure. She highlights the importance of minor changes like tooth angulation and gum display, that significantly influence the final outcome. The video reinforces how Invisalign’s 3D customisation and iterative planning offer flexibility and visual clarity, helping both dentist and patient collaboratively shape the final smile.

Orthodontic treatment is no longer just about straightening teeth—it’s about crafting smiles that reflect personality, facial symmetry, and long-term health. Dr Tiffany’s in-depth case study on Invisalign treatment highlights how modern dentistry goes beyond basic alignment. She considers factors such as crowding, tooth rotation, gum visibility, and bite dynamics while ensuring that each decision complements the patient’s natural features. Her use of digital simulation tools allows for accuate planning, real-time customisation, and collaborative input from patients.

Importantly, she addresses common concerns like shaving enamel (IPR), managing black triangles, and choosing between functional or aesthetic compromises. By emphasising a tailored approach, Dr Tiffany makes clear that orthodontics isn’t a one-size-fits-all process. It’s a journey that balances science, art, and patient preference—resulting in outcomes that are as functional as they are visually appealing.
