Grand Smile Designs

GSD is a team of highly skilled and experienced dental health professionals giving World class smile rehabilitation services. Founded by Tom Keppel, GSD ensures all the requirements of treatment and your personal concerns are in harmony to give the finest results.

But your dental health is more than appearance, we always take great consideration in the comfort of your new smile as well as its beauty. Understanding your occlusion (the way your teeth fit together) is essential for optimal treatment, even if there are no teeth present to start with! Continued training at the Pankey Institute in the USA www.pankey.org ensures we understand not only the appearance of your smile but that you are comfortable, confident and in the best dental health after completing treatment.

Your Grand Smile Design starts with radiographs, photographs and a full dental examination as well as listening to the dental story you have to tell. Your treatment starts with exact replica stone models of your existing mouth positioned accurately on a dental articulator to simulate your jaw movements. With these models we design your optimal new smile, including potential implant sites, ensuring that an outstanding and functional result is achievable before we continue.

Trial Smile

In some cases it is possible to make a copy of your new smile and transfer it onto your existing teeth to help design how your new smile will not only look but feel. It also allows us to consider any alterations that may be needed to the design.

Our Specialists

It may be that you require treatments on your gums, existing teeth, implants or other oral surgery. Our in house specialists ensure that all your treatments are at our practice and that communication between the GSD team is consistent.

Trial Smile 2

Depending on case and the number of surgical appointments, we aim for you to leave with a 'trial smile 2', a provisional copy of your final restoration. This allows any subtle changes to design to be made to improve aesthetics, phonetics and comfort prior to permanent construction.

Tom and his team then ensure that your permanent smile is correctly finished in your mouth and that you leave feeling completely satisfied.
