Who is Dr. Atheer Gabban?
Dr. Atheer Gabban is a restorative and aesthetic dentist at ACE DNTL STUDIO. His practice covers smile makeovers, facial harmony and patient-centred aesthetic care, and he is known within the studio for transparent communication — explaining what is proposed, why, and what the alternatives are.
What does 'facial harmony' mean in smile design?
It means designing the smile against the face rather than against the teeth in isolation. Midline, lip line, the curve of the smile against the lower lip, tooth proportion relative to face width, and how the smile behaves in motion all matter. A set of teeth that is beautiful in a close-up photograph and wrong for the face is a common failure, and it is a design failure rather than a technical one.
How does the planning process work?
Photographic and digital records first, then a Digital Smile Design proposal reviewed with the patient, then a removable mock-up worn for around two weeks before anything irreversible. Most cases run across two or three visits over roughly a fortnight. The mock-up is where the design is agreed — or changed.
What if I do not like the proposed design?
That is what the mock-up stage is for, and saying so is useful rather than awkward. The design is revised while it is still reversible. A patient who feels unable to raise an objection at that point is the single most reliable route to an unhappy result.
Are there cases you would advise against?
Yes, and they are documented rather than decided case by case. ACE DNTL maintains a published set of grounds for declining or postponing a cosmetic case — including unresolved disease, untreated occlusal problems, and expectations that the treatment proposed cannot meet. Being told the timing is wrong is a better outcome than being sold work that will disappoint.
Do you treat patients who have had cosmetic work done elsewhere?
Frequently. Second opinions and revision cases are a routine part of the practice — veneers that no longer match, work that has aged differently from the natural teeth around it, or a result that never looked right. Assessment starts with what is actually salvageable rather than with a full replacement.
Is the porcelain made in-house?
Yes. Every ACE DNTL clinic has its own laboratory in the building, plus a central advanced laboratory for complex work — all owned, none outsourced. The practical consequence is that the ceramist can meet the patient, see the shade in daylight rather than in a photograph, and adjust in minutes.
How do I arrange a consultation?
Consultations can be booked online or by telephone, and international patients are routinely scheduled around travel. You will receive a written plan with costs before agreeing to any treatment.
