Transform Your Smile with Smile Design at Mint Springs Dentistry.

At Mint Springs Dentistry in Mason City, IA, Dr. Noemi Cruz-Orcutt and her team specialize in crafting confident, healthy smiles through a personalized process known as Smile Design. This innovative service blends artistic vision with advanced dental science to create a smile that is not only beautiful but also functional and long-lasting.

What Is Smile Design?

Smile Design is a customized approach to improving the appearance and harmony of your smile. Unlike one-size-fits-all treatments, Smile Design takes into account your facial features, gum line, lip shape, and overall oral health. Every detail is considered—shape, size, color, and alignment of your teeth—to ensure the final outcome looks natural and enhances your unique look.

The Smile Design Process

At Mint Springs Dentistry, Smile Design is a multi-phase process that begins with understanding your goals and ends with a stunning transformation you can preview and approve before any final procedures are performed.

  1. Discovery and Planning
    It starts with a consultation where Dr. Cruz-Orcutt listens to your goals and captures high-quality photos and models of your teeth. These assets help build a two-dimensional (2D) visual plan that acts as a guide for the rest of the process.

  2. The 3D Blueprint
    A three-dimensional (3D) version of your proposed smile is created using wax molds and digital tools. This blueprint shows how the final smile will look and function, allowing for feedback and adjustments before any treatment begins.

  3. Mock-Up and Test Drive
    Patients can try in a prototype version of their new smile. This “test drive” offers a real-world preview of the look and feel of your future smile—giving you confidence in the process and outcome.

  4. Final Treatment and Delivery
    Once you’re fully satisfied with the plan, Mint Springs Dentistry proceeds with any necessary cosmetic or restorative procedures, such as veneers, whitening, or bonding. The final results are both aesthetically pleasing and structurally sound.
