Midline

The starting point of any smile design is the facial midline, an imaginary vertical line drawn between the front two upper teeth. For optimal aesthetic value, the facial midline should be in the middle of the face. Here at Brinley Orthodontics, midline symmetry is always a goal of orthodontic treatment to ensure a healthy, beautiful smile.

Facial Balance

What is facial balance? Facial balance is typically studied by dividing the face into horizontal thirds and vertical fifths. “Aesthetically pleasing” faces typically fit into those facial proportions! At Brinley Orthodontics, Facial balance is always a goal of orthodontic treatment to ensure a healthy, beautiful smile. 

Gummy Smile

The health and appearance of your gums are essential elements in your smile! Excessive gingival display (a gummy smile) can be caused by several factors such as genetics and vertical growth pattern. A gummy smile will not improve on its own, but it can be treated. Explore our customized treatment plans that treat a variety of common orthodontic issues, including excessive gingival display!

Narrow Smile

Having a narrow smile means that your upper jaw and palate have a more tapered shape than the average mouth. The easiest way to determine the wideness of your smile is to count the number of teeth that show when you smile naturally. Seeing six or fewer front teeth indicates a narrow smile. Narrow smiles typically show dark in the corners - this is also known as dark buckle corridors. Having a narrow smile is fairly common and can be fixed with orthodontic treatment from the experts at Brinley Orthodontics!
