My name is Ana Leonora Aragón. I am Colombian and have lived in New York for more than ten years. Over the years, life in a city as vibrant and competitive as New York made me aware of the importance of having a radiant and confident smile. However, I was not happy with my smile and felt embarrassed to smile because of its appearance.

After looking into different options, I found Dr. Johanna Calderón and decided to travel to Colombia for a smile design treatment. In this article, I will share my personal experience at Dr. Calderón's clinic and provide detailed information about what smile design is and the different types of treatments available.

What Is Smile Design?

Smile design is a set of cosmetic and dental procedures aimed at improving the appearance of the smile. These procedures can range from simple adjustments such as teeth whitening to more complex treatments such as dental veneers and gum contouring. The goal is to create a harmonious and attractive smile that suits each patient's facial features.

Types of smile design treatments:

1. Teeth Whitening:

This is one of the most common procedures and consists of lightening the color of the teeth to remove stains and discoloration.

2. Dental Veneers:

These are thin layers of porcelain or resin that are bonded to the front surface of the teeth to improve their appearance. There are two main types of veneers:

Zirconia Veneers:

They are more durable and resistant to stains, offering a natural and aesthetic appearance.

Resin Veneers:

They are more affordable, but also less durable compared to zirconia veneers.

3. Gum Contouring — Gingivectomy:

This procedure is performed to improve the contour of the gums and make the teeth look more proportionate. It is especially useful for people with gummy smiles.

4. Edge Design:

This consists of adjusting the edges of the teeth to improve the alignment and shape of the smile.

5. Micro Smile Design:

This includes small modifications such as removing minor chips or correcting slightly misaligned teeth.

When I arrived at Dr. Johanna Calderón's clinic in the Torreón Empresarial building, I immediately felt welcomed. The clinic is modern, and the staff is extremely kind and professional. From the first consultation, they guided me comprehensively, explaining all the options available for my case.

I chose a complete treatment that included zirconia dental veneers and gum contouring to improve the shape of my teeth. The procedure was much more comfortable than I expected, and Dr. Calderón made me feel safe and in good hands at all times.

The result was amazing. I felt beautiful, happy, and confident with my new veins. In addition, the gum contouring significantly improved the appearance of my smile. The care I received was truly excellent. I felt at home and recommend Dr. Johanna Calderón 100%. If you are interested in transforming your smile, you should place yourself in her hands.
