Los Angeles: Da Vinci's Principle Applies to Cosmetic Dentistry

    /24-7PressRelease/ - LOS ANGELES, CA, June 21, 2007 - "Each dentist has a different aesthetic," said Dr. Anthony Mobasser, a cosmetic dentist serving Los Angeles and Beverly Hills. "You might think of it as working in the varying styles of Monet, Rembrandt or Michelangelo."

Variations also depend upon talent and experience. Some may think of cosmetic dentists as simple technicians, repeating identical procedures over and over in a nearly mechanical style. The reality is vastly different.

Each patient presents a different situation. Some may require minimal care while others require an extreme makeover. There are as many different ways to approach treatment as there are cosmetic dentists.

"One patient may need porcelain veneers and another Lumineers ," said Mobasser. "Both are made of thin, durable porcelain. Both permanently bond to teeth to cover discolored, chipped, misaligned or worn teeth. Both provide natural and long lasting results. But choosing which option is best suited to a patient's needs depends on their dental history, overall health and desired results."

Dr. Mobasser takes Leonardo da Vinci as his muse. The artist and scientist of the Renaissance created the Principle of Divine Proportion, also known as the Golden Ratio. Many artists and architects throughout the ages have applied this principle to create more aesthetically pleasing works.

As a cosmetic dentist, Dr. Mobasser applies the Golden Ratio when developing a patient's care plan.

"Beautiful and enduring smiles must be proportioned to harmonize with a person's unique facial features to emphasize their individual beauty," said Mobasser. "Cosmetic procedures are a cost-effective investment to restore the facial proportion a patient was meant to have."

A patient's conformity to the Principal of Divine Proportion can be determined by applying the following rules.
• Can vertical lines be drawn from the pupil to a corner of the mouth?
• Does the face divide horizontally into thirds?
• Does the lower third of the face divide into thirds (nose to chin)?
• Does the face divide vertically into fifths (5x the width of one eye)?
