High resolution intra-oral photographies can help
you make a better planning for smile makeovers using
keynote. In this kind of pictures details are easy to see and
no mistakes can be done. Also you can make a very fast
preview of desired smile using LIQUIFY filter in Photoshop.
To achieve better control over design use touch graphic
tablets like Wacom Cintiq HD 27 inch.
12
To achieve this photo directly from the camera you need
retractors, Flexipalette contrastor and set your camera to
intra-oral settings in manual mode M. It is recommended to
make your own library with as many as possible intra-oral
pictures, create own database and use it for virtual smile
simulations in keynote for your next real patient cases.
To create virtual veneers just select veneer shape using

draw with pen function then select both shape and picture
and mask the tooth, do this step by step for all 6 anteriors.

In order to get clear and correctly exposed pictures like this we use only
one flash and position the lips between flash and reflector. In this way light
from flash will be reflected on the lip area.
Position of the reflector should be as close as possible to the lips
(20-30cm) , and lips as close as possible to the flash (20-30cm).

In order to obtain this black background we need only one flash and maybe a large
reflector, patient must be positioned in front of you and flash in front of the patient.
Be sure that behind the patient you have at least 4-5m free space ( no walls or objects,
people, etc…). You need to be as close as possible to patient’s face so when you look
through viewfinder you will not see neck or shoulders. Use intra-oral settings and chose
from menu in Picture style (Canon) or Picture control (Nikon) - monochrome style to get
black and white pictures.
How to ... ?
Usually our patients request
just a dental work and when they
come to our studio and they do
not expect that they will get
also a professional photo book.
This is more than just a pleasant
surprise for them, is our powerful
marketing tool which is going to
be used by patient it self in social
media like Facebook , Instagram
etc…
21
To achieve a perfect white background, use
one soft box or octobox behind the patient.
You can also use white wall but in this
situation you need to increase ISO gradually till
wall becomes white completely or use one extra
flash pointed on that wall behind the patient.
In order to promote our work we need to
show it as good as we can. If we would do classic
portraits then we would have too many details in
the picture that is why we should focus only on
head-shots.
This way we can focus on our goal and that is
to show the smile we created.
If we want to avoid shadows on the patient’s
face and we use only one light then we are
supposed to use big size reflectors too.

Bi-color wash tehnique for zirconia with E.MAX
For this kind of pictures we can use also a white or a black background.
In this case we use a black acrylic table and 2 X SB-R200 Nikon flashes
(Nikon R1C1 Kit) and a product photography tent. We have to make sure
that the flashes are turned opposite of the subject we want to shoot and
in this way light will be reflected back on photographed subject by the
walls of the tent, producing less reflections and a softer light.
26
Remember !!! when shooting always stay in front of the
work and at same level.

MODEL PROTOCOL
For proper planing you can use keynote

and create the design of the future smile.
Go to shapes and then drawing with pen to
make your desired contour.
31
WHITE BACKGROUND
If you need white background for your photos make them directly using
one flash and softbox, white acrylic table and reflector. Make sure that table
is close to softbox and also camera lose to table in this way you will get bright
photos and no shadows. Use close-up settings.
32
To create this reflection use add reflection in Keynote. Also
don’t leave images like they come from camera, always resize
them and increase their size so you can achieve stuning pictures.

Slice of the tooth needs to be cut with a diamond disc or trimmed till you
reach 0,4-0,5 mm then use a diamond paper to finish and make it smooth..
After you have the slice dip it in baby oil for minimum 30 minutes so that
enamel and dentin will get hydrated and become more transparent.
To be able to obtain black or white background you need to have one flash
under a small glass table or acrylic transparent surface then position on it
the linear polarisation filter on this you put then the slice of the tooth. Now
position the circular polarisation filter on your macro lens. Rotate it to get
desired background and shoot.
Use intra-oral settings.
36
First make sure that you have mounted a hi quality circular polarising
(HOYA HD PRO ) filter on your macro lens then add a linear polarising filter
on the acrylic table. When focusing try to rotate the circular polarising filter
in order to get different backgrounds like black or white.
Your position should be perfectly perpendicular on the table plan on top
of the molar.

ARTISTIC & EMOTIONAL

L I G H T S E T U P M I G H T VA R Y F R O M O N E L I G H T T O M O R E L I G H T S
There are no precise rules and light set-ups just use your own imagination and be creative because artistic
photography is not about the pushing camera button. Artistic and glamour photography is creation and
emotion. Very important is positioning of the photo model and focusing always in the eye which is by the way
the soul of any portrait.
This kind of photos are extremely useful to promote and show your work worldwide. You can use them make
posters, flyers and also start a powerful marketing campaign. For this type of photography session you will
need professional equipment, professional model and professional make-up artist, a story and only after this
you will be ready to shoot.
Communication with the model and good mood
is essential for achieving great shots. To achieve this
use appropriate music and feel free to use jokes.
To reach and get certain dynamism in your photos
model should use hands when posing no matter if
they are on the face or in the hair.

How to get black or white background ?
In order to obtain this black background we need only one flash and
round lens reflector, patient must be positioned in front of you in 45 degree
and flash in front of the patient. Be sure that behind the patient you have
at least 3m free space (no walls or object, people, etc…). Use close-up or
intra-oral settings.
In order to obtain this white background we need only one flash and round lens
reflector, patient must be positioned in front of the soft box and camera in front of
the patient from his lateral side. Use close-up settings. Distance between soft box
and lips should be approximately 20-30 cm in both cases.

DSLR CAMERA
When buying camera make sure that it has a second

screen on top beside the big screen on the back. This will
help you change settings like f, ISO, time exposure and many
more much faster during your photography sessions. Camera
equipped with this screens are better choice. You can find this
option in Dx or FX format.
Digital single-lens reflex cameras (also called digital SLR or DSLR) are digital cameras combining
the optics and the mechanisms of a single-lens reflex camera with a digital imaging sensor, as
opposed to photographic film. The reflex design scheme is the primary difference between a DSLR
and other digital cameras. In the reflex design, light travels through the lens, then to a mirror that
alternates to send the image to either the viewfinder or the image sensor. The alternative would be
to have a viewfinder with its own lens, hence the term “single lens” for this design. By using only one
lens, the viewfinder presents an image that will not perceptibly differ from what is captured by the
camera’s sensor.
50
S E N S O R S DX V S F X
Size of the sensor is the most important when it comes to photo quality. Bigger
sensors capture more light and more light means better pictures. It has better dynamic
range, less noise and improved low light performance than its smaller sensor sibling.
For dental photography both are a right choice to make. For example DX cameras are
often chosen for macro because 100mm lens on DX body is 150mm due to crop factor.
Full frame sensor has the same size as old analog film.

lenses & accesories
My personal recommendation is Tokina 100mm ProD f2.8 EX DG Macro lens (after
i had a Nikon and a Sigma lens) because it gives me sharper and cleaner details in
close-ups and intra-oral.
For portraits, laboratory and artistic photos is very good and if you count that the
price is unbeatable this lens will amaze you.
Just as a tip for holidays & family photos i recommend 18-300mm from Sigma
which is a very good all-around lens in this way you have to carry only one lens good
for the most of purposes.

lenses & accesories
In order to be able to focus closer to the subject we can use
macro rings or bellows that have no optic elements. In this way
we lose some light due to increased focal length and we need to
compensate with proper settings. For example if before we used f22
now we will use f18 or smaller.
Teleconverters are more expensive due to existence of optic elements (lenses) that allow
us get very good pictures without loosing too much quality. For example if we use100mm
macro lens with the teleconverter we transform it in 200mm macro or if we use 600mm tele
lens we get 1200mm tele lens.

DA I LY U S E R E C O M M E N DAT I O N
My recommendation is that if you just need

a camera for daily use, patient evidence and
data base for your patients you will not need
to spend so much money. You will get very
good quality for posting on Facebook or some
presentations.
A normal DX body camera like Nikon D7200
or Canon 70D will be more than enough . Those
combined with a 60mm macro lens or 100mm
lens from Tokina and a ring flash from Metz or
Sigma will make a good choice for daily use.
Biggest advantages beside that is a very
light weight kit is also that you can produce
good images and it’s affordable. To get softer
light with those ring flashes put some paper in
Sigma EM-140 front of it to diffuse the light. YONG NOU YN - 14 EX
On the other hand if you need camera to make portfolio pictures, use them for courses and publications or for marketing than you will need to
spend more money which is not really a problem if you think that from now on you can create amazing photography without hiring professionals to
do it. Recommended is a kit like nikon d750 or Canon 5Dsr with Tokina 100mm lens and twin flash or studio lights.
56
TWIN FLASH VS RING FLASH
The light comes from

the sides so we have just a
little reflection. This allows
us to see internal structure
of the tooth, mamelons,
hallo effects, transparency,
translucency etc…
The light comes from

the front and creates a big
reflection on the vestibular
surface of the tooth. Always
try to soften the light just by
using plain A4 paper in front
of the ring flash.

SONY ALPHA 7R II 42 MPX FULL FRAME MIRRORLESS CAMERA

Recommended body for 4K videos and macro photography is the brand new Sony Alpha
7R II 42 Mpx, world’s first full frame backilluminated Exmor R CMOS sensor.
It is ideal if the weight is a problem and you don’t want to hold a heavy camera during
dental treatment that require steady hands. Recommended twin flash is Sony HVL-MT24AM
Macro.
The results are truly remarkable with incredibly detailed 42 Mpx stills, 4K video, high
sensitivity up to 102.400, 5 axis steady shot, inside image stabilization system is fine tuned
for high resolution image sensors. Combined it allows to capture low noise and wide dynamic
range that are superior to previous models. Price is around 3200 $.
62
RECOMMENDED MIRRORLESS LENS
Get up close and personal with the 1:1 magnification ratio

of the full-frame compatible FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS Lens
for Sony’s E-Mount mirrorless cameras. Optimized for macro
shooting, this medium telephoto lens utilizes an aspherical
element along with extra-low dispersion and super extra-low
dispersion glass in order to create sharp imagery with minimal
aberration. Also, it has a Nano AR Coating that suppresses
reflections and allows for efficient light transmission for clear
photographs.
Its maximum aperture of f/2.8 is effective when shooting
in low light and allows for shallow depth-of-field focus. An
internal focus system in which only the middle optical groups
move when focusing provides fast autofocus action and a short
minimum focus distance of 11”.
An optical image stabilization system uses gyro sensors
to detect camera movement and quiet linear motors to shift
the stabilization lens for blur control that is very helpful when
shooting macro and/or in low light. Nine circular aperture blades
create a unique diaphragm design that is almost perfectly
circular throughout its aperture range and thus helps to create
pleasing out-of-focus highlights. Price is around 1000$.

If you need more power and mobility from your wireless

flash choose one 180/360W mobile flash system with high
acumulator capacity from Walimex. You can use it anywhere
you need without plug it in any power source. That can help
you if you want to move your flash all over your studio. I use
it as main light for close-up and for portrait photography.
Yo u can find it on www.dentalphotography.ro - mobile
studio kit.
LIGHTSHOOTER 360W
My recommendation for intra-oral photography is Nissin i40 system with R2

bracket system from www.photomed.net. It has much more power than nikon or
canon dedicated flashes which is better. Also price is unbeatable.

Walimex round lens reflector is ideal for close-up Always set flash directions in opposite way and not
shots when we use only one flash light. Golden side is directly towards the patient face so the reflected light
for softer reflections and silver is more reflective but reflected by Lumiquest pocket bouncers will be softer. This
also soft. way you will get better photos with less reflections ideal for
observing details and structure of the teeth.

C O M P L E T E P H O T O S T U D I O S E T- U P
5m Ideal is to have a separate room

where you can organise a photo
studio. Minimum requirements
would be to have a minimum 5m
long and 3 m wide room. If you want
to use white wall as background you
will need a third flash to aim on the
BLACK BACKGROUND
wall behind patient.

Good idea is to have a 27 inch
iMac in the same room where you
can edit fast all your pictures. I
1m also have a Wacom Cintiq 27QHD
graphic tablet with touch screen 27
inch that allows me to make a very
3m fast virtual smile makeover using
LIQUIFY filter in Photoshop. Usually
that is what I do on first meeting
with the patient.
Biggest advantage of liquify is
that I work with patient colour from
the gum and teeth so the result will
be truly amazing. See page 10.
66
W H I T E B A C KG R O U N D
Use big soft boxes like 60x90 or bigger with the flash set on slave mode, in order to get perfectly white
background. To avoid milky reflections in picture try to lower flash power on this soft box and increase on
main light.
FLASH TRANSMITTER
In order to activate flashes you will need remote controllers wi-fi or infra-red based. One thing to remember
is that with studio light use always exposure time under 1/200 otherwise you will have black lines in the
photos because flashes will not be able to synchronise. There are special controllers that can synchronise
at very short exposure times but are more expensive. Nikon SU-800 can control up to 250 SB-R200 flashes.
Usually when you purchase a complete photo studio kit with 2 or 3 flashes you will get controller too.
67
RECOMMENDED STUDIO FLASH KIT

RECOMMENDED REFLECTORS
This reflectors are usually recommended when we do portrait photography and we

use one flash but we don’t want to have shadows . We position the flash in the front and
up from model and the reflector under models shoulders in this way upper flash light
will be reflected from down too and shadows eliminated. You can use then handheld or
with special reflector supports. In this example without reflector you can see shadow
on the neck area and face is more underexposed.

we can slightly move Iso settings to fix this.
Bigger ISO number means more brightness, Less image noise/grain More image noise/grain
smaller means less light.
For dental photography set camera to ISO 100 or 200. Our photography is not going to be
influenced by the surrounding light because we always use artificial light from our flashes, light
identical to natural light, more or less equal to 5560K.
In this way we have guarantee that our image will have zero noise when we zoom in and the
picture will be sharp and clear as we want.

in focus from incisive to molars. Use
f22-29
For close-up photography
always focus on teeth or lips so we
get all mouth in focus. Use f16-18
For portrait photography we
need to focus in the eye of the model
in this way we get very sharp area
around eyes which is the soul of any
portrait. Use f10-13.
77
D E P T H o f FIELD
Focus between lateral and canine, this way you will have
best depth of the field, you will have centrals in focus but
also posterior area.
1/3 2/3
If you focus on the centrals you will lose

1/3 2/3 DOF in the posterior area.
78
AF-S - SINGLE FOCUS POINT
AF-S (auto-focus single) mode is recommended to use in static photography like in portrait,
close-up and dental photography. This function will allow you to keep camera centred on patient
face but will allow you to move your focus point (only one focus point) in desired area.
When buying a DSLR be careful that you buy one with as many possible
focus points, this will allow you to focus in all desired areas of your screen
without moving camera. In order to be able to focus in desired position
without problems make sure that you got enough light in the room. If
the light condition is poor your camera will have problem focusing, it will
move backward and forward without finding right focus.

WHITE BALANCE
In order to reproduce with high accuracy the original colour of the tooth nowadays modern
cameras have a very good quality calibration inside when it comes to white balance. If camera is
set to flash WB when shooting you can be sure that you get proper colour anytime you shoot with
ring, twin or studio flashes. They all got appropriate colour temperature 5560k close to daylight.
Of course there is always option to calibrate white balance inside camera or computer using
a grey card 18% or white expo disc. This tools are more precise and are used by professionals
photographers even if difference is very small, often unrecognisable by the human eye.
For calibration see page 78-79
80
OTHER RECOMMENDED SETTINGS FOR CAMERA
- Set metering mode on SPOT OR

CENTER WEIGHTED, those modes are
recommended for static photography
like portrait, close-up or macro.
- In orderd to get extremely sharp

pictures chose in the menu from
Picture Style (Canon) or Picture
control (Nikon) NEUTRAL mode
and calibrate SHARPNES to 7 or 8,
because from the factory camera
comes to sharpnes 1.
81
R E C O M M E N D E D P H O T O G R A P H Y F O R M AT S
RAW format is used when we need exceptional quality, when editing is necessary but we don’t want to lose quality during this process. Jpeg format
loses quality every time we edit file. RAW file uses special applications for editing like Capture NX , RAW room from Photoshop or DPP from Canon.
JPEG format is most common used file all over the world and is working with all known graphic applications. Recommended resolution for upload
on Facebook is Full-HD resolution 1980/1080.
82
RECOMMENDED PROFESSIONAL SD CARDS
No matter if you are making a 4k video or HD videos, or you make

professional photography, ideal is to have sandisk sd-card with
minimum transfer rate of 45mb/s or higher like 95mb/s. Nowadays
jpeg file is about 20mb and raw about 50mb, so consider buying
always high capacity storage sd-card like 64gb or even bigger.
Don’t forget to format your card in the camera every time you
start a new photo session and for fast transfer use good card readers
like original ones from SanDisk.
!!! In the case you just deleted by mistake all your photos from the SD-Card those
can be recovered with special software like Rescue PRO specialised software from San-
Disk company website.
83
W H Y D E N TA L P H O T O G R A P H Y ?
No mater if you are dentist or technician along with the dental chair or cad-cam, photo camera should be always beside you. There are many
reasons why you should consider having it right from the start. It is one of the investments “MUST HAVE“.
1. Self evaluation - due to magnification on big screen you can learn from your mistakes and analyse your work. You will be able to see in clear
detail and find what is wrong and needs to be fixed. Just take a shoot with macro lens and you will have results like with a digital microscope.
2. Colour of teeth - using camera is easiest way and most precise when it comes to choosing the right colour for your patient teeth. There are
special expensive equipments for colour but none of them will be so rich in informations which is transmitted by a correctly exposed photo.
3. Photo documentation - every dental office or dental lab should have photos from a to z with their cases. You should have a standard photography
protocol and apply it for each patient, like a set of 6 intra-oral photos and 4 portrait photos would be more than ok. Also try to make follow up
photos after a longer period so you can see predictability of your work.
84
4. Education - Start making nice presentation out of your photographed
cases, use them for your staff in study clubs, use them in congres,
course or just make articles and publish it. Also this way you can
educate your patients by showing them a how the treatment looks
like and is supposed to be.
5. Protection - To avoid legal disputes nowdays is safe to make photos
before-after of the patient so in case some problems appear you
can have proof of how it was. This can protect your brand or your
reputation and keep safe from financial damages.
6. Marketing - If you like to make portrait and close-up photography
you can use them for posters, flyers and articles to promote your
own clinic or laboratory. In this way you will use photos made by you
of your very own patients and you will not need to buy from stock
websites. Be sure that patients will sign a contract for this kind of
use of their photos.
7. Portfolio - Before & after - On of the most important roles of
dental photography are photos before & after which are going to
build up your portfolio. Is fair to show patients what you can do and
try not to use magazines and pictures that don’t belong to you. In
this way patient will get what he see and if he likes what he see he
will choose you as dentist. There are many cases that patients were
shown pictures with perfect smiles and they got much worse that
they expected. www.lablinemagazine.com

In order to be more accurate in choosing colour please use dedicated keys for crown colour, for gingiva colour and for stump colour. Use 4 keys with
closest shade possible to patient colour. As helping tool you can use this special holder that includes artificial gingiva and grey card too handcrafted

C O L O U R D E T E R M I N AT I O N
Maybe one of the most important roles of photography in dentistry today is the image that helps us chose correctly the colour for our next
restoration. For this, ideal is to have a complete set of 4 images:
- cross-polarised photo
- normal close-up photo ( f18-f22 - iso 100 - exposure time 1/125 - WB on Flash)
- high contrast low brightness ( edit in keynote )
- black & white ( edit in keynote )
To get best of cross polarised photo we can use Smile Lite from SmileLine or Polar_Eyes filter.

Equipment for dentists and technicians to help them choose right colour and do not make
more mistake due to its polarised lens and daylight L.E.D.
What it does is that it gives you opportunity to see the teeth without any reflections from
the light and you can analyse colour map of the tooth.

Smile Capture by Smile Line

With this attachment on your smile.lite you can capture images with your
smartphone and determine right colour and see better internal structure
of the tooth, mamelons, halo effects, transparency and translucency.
In order to calibrate white balance in your phone camera it uses a
customised set of grey cards made specially for each type of phone.
89
NIKON R1C1
Polar_eyes filters are right choice for the top photographers that desire best quality photos, tool that can capture amazing details and help
professionals see better elements that need to be reproduced especially in anterior area like : halo effect, crack lines or mamelons. It is recommended
for both dentists and technicians that usually need to reproduce single incisive with direct or indirect restorations.

The white_balance grey reference card is made of

polyvinyl chloride acetate (PVCA), lined with a polyvinyl
chloride (PVC) foil which has a uniform spectral reflectance
of a defined value using the CIE L*a*b* 1976 system
specified by the Commission internationale de l’éclairage:
L* 79; a*0, b*0. The standard error of the chromaticity (a*
+ b*) is ± 0.5.
The white_balance card is used for white balancing
digital images which were photographed using the RAW
format either during post production or using the custom
white balance function of any modern DSLR camera.
Because of the known luminosity value (L* 79) of the white_
balance card, it is possible to also calibrate the exposure of
digital images during post production for standardisation
to maximize compatibility, interoperability, repeatability
and quality control. For this purpose, it is equipped with
a circular adjustment area providing the user with four
fields to compensate and average exposure. It also has a
millimetre scale to assist with the DSD protocol. The white_
balance card is made of hypoallergenic materials and can
be disinfected using the cold sterilisation method.

without contrastor with contrastor
Contrastors will help you get photoshop free backgrounds without light reflections and ideal for unlimited use and sterilisation. You can bend this
retractors over and over again without problems. Also they are patient friendly due to soft cover material that they are wrapped so you can not make any harm.
93
The shorter and wider shape side of the retractor

can help us get good shot from anterior view. Lips will
be more retracted, contrastor will have enough space
to get in right position and gingival area revealed
better also. Image from right side is after croping.

The longer and narrow shape side of the retractor

can help us get good shot from lateral view. Cheeks
will be more relaxed and patient can pull harder
towards posterior area. In this way we don’t need to
use mirrors to get this photos done. Image from right
side is after croping.
94
PHOTO-CAD
In order to avoid foggy surface before using the

mirrors you can apply next tips:
- keep them in hot water
- spray with air during process
- apply liquid soap and clean it out.
95
PERSPECTIVE & SYMMETRY
One of the most important rules to get good photos is to make them while patient is sitting on the normal chair and
not in the dental unit. Camera level has to be at the same height with patient’s eyes and be careful:
- not from up because teeth will look longer
- not from down because teeth will look shorter
- not from left because the left side teeth will be wider and left narrow
- not from right because the right side teeth will be wider and left narrow
Important for intra-oral pictures is to crop images in the way that you will not see nose, beard or any other parts of
patient’s face. In this way you will obtain clean photos focused on your needs.
Use of adequate retractors and contrastors will help you get best possible views. Make sure that you use gloves all
the time when the you make intra-oral photos.

Necessary tools & materials for a complete smile makeover protocol:
- Macbook Pro by Apple
- Keynote installed
- Complete set of photos
- Stone model & wax-up
- Impression material
- Retractors & Contrastors
- Mock-up material
In order to get best possible silicone key

for the mock-up cut it 1mm away from cervical
contour in this shape. This way all excess of
the material will get out and you will be ready
to make great pictures right after you remove
silicone key.
100
Ideal wax for aesthetic wax-up is grey wax from Renfert which has ideal consistency for
speedy and accurate work. Is also very good for being better the shape and texture that is
why all professionals use it.
After doing the surface texture is highly recommended to polish the wax, smoothen
surface and only after this protocol to take impression for silicone key.
In order to make some pressure in cervical area we need to scratch this area
before taking impression. In this way all excess will get out and cervical area
will remain completely clean so we can take pictures directly after removing
silicone key.
101
Material for silicone key it has to be not very elastic but also not very rigid. We need
to be able to remove not very easy but also not very hard the silicone key from patient
mouth. If is too elastic it will come out easy and our provisionals will not be very precise,
also in cervical area we are going to have extra material. If is very hard we can break the
wax or worse to brake provisionals when we remove it.
Before inserting silicone key please dry teeth, don’t use vaseline or isolate because mock-up will come down very easy. Picture directly from the
camera after we remove silicone key. As you can see no more excess of material, clean cervical areas, nice and precise surface texture - ready to shoot
with the camera … and yes it is TELIO! Patient can remove mock-up material very easy at home after 2-3 hours or next day if he wants so. In this way we
give patient to have a “test-drive” before even we start prepping.
102
Telio auto curing bis-acryl is easy to use due to its fast curing time and is best of its kind in
reproducing high surface texture details. My favourite colour for doing mock-ups is BL3, in this
way I make a noticeable change for my patient smile and I get high acceptance rate from them.
Very important - after mock-up never show

mirror to patient, just make some shots and
make in 5 minutes a nice presentation that
you will display on large screen. In this way
patient will see himself through your eyes.

In Keynote we can make slides to use them fit our needs. For example:
- gum surgery slide - that can help us measure exactly how much we need to cut to achieve pink
aesthetics.
- ocluzal plan slide - that can help us do a correct aesthetic wax-up in articulator without doing it
tilted in any way.
- golden proportion - this slide will help us get oriented about how next design should look like if
we want to achieve ideal proportions in our next restoration.
- new vs old design - this one we can use to have exact measurements for the new desired wax-up.
- virtual veneers slide - this one will help us visualise the future smile we designed for our patient
without touching and prepping patient teeth.
105
R E C O M M E N D E D E D I T I N G S O F T WA R E
Keynote app is ideal for arranging our pictures

and add logo, also make great presentations and
use it to create a DSD protocol. Chose 1920x1080
resolution and 16:9 format in order to upload it on
Facebook for best possible quality.
It works only on Apple computers and is actually
similar to Power Point in windows but much better
and user friendly.
106
- mask - which is to crop but unlike in
windows you can rotate image or frame in
crop mode. It is most used for arranging
pictures or to make virtual veneers. To
make a virtual veneer import one upper
jaw intra-oral picture then make selection
of the tooth you want to crop ( shape/
draw with pen ) and select by holding
down CMD key both the frame and the
image then click mask. This way you will
make your very own virtual veneer. You
can use it for lips or objects too.
- instant alpha - is used to make

transparency, ideal for int ra-oral photos
wi th black contractors. Press on alpha
icon then go with mouse over the area
you want to make transparent and click
by holding mouse till desired area will get
highlighted and press enter . You can add
then your image on any background.
107
- group/ungroup - with this option selected
you can merge together images and text in
one object. I use it mostly when I create logos
with photos and custom fonts downloaded
from specialised websites. So instead of
having 3 separate elements you will have
only one, ready to copy, duplicate, etc…
- adjust images - I use this function to make

fine tuning of the photos right after arranging
it in the page. I can change exposure,
sharpen the image, change saturation
and many other options. Ideal for colour
determination where you need one picture
with high contrast and low brightness and
another on without saturation, I mean black
& white.
108
- opacity & reflection - this functions do
exactly what they mean, just select a photo
and see what happens. After you select your
object or text you can find it on the right
side: format/style/reflection or format/
style/opacity.
- flip Horizontal/Vertical - with this function

you can flip your pictures as you want and
achieve perfect composition of your poster/
flyer.
109
KEYNOTE
Usually when I start a new project in keynote I choose from the beginning one of the backgrounds like white or black because most of my
photography has this background and is easy to make good composition and nice graphics, collages, etc…
Next step I select format of my presentation 4:3 or 16/9, the last one has full HD resolution (1980/1080) and I start to add photos or videos just by
dragging and dropping them directly from desired folder or from the browser and i start making composition and fine tuning by adding logo or text.
In order to create a beautiful logo download some special and unique fonts from dedicated websites and do your very own original logo easy and fast.
Most common fast commands in Keynote aplication are: DENTAL PHOTOGRAPHY

- CMD S - SAVE
- CMD Z - UNDO
- CMD C - COPY
- CMD V - PASTE
- CMD A - SELECT ALL
- CMD R - RULLER Smile Arhitects
- CMD D - DUPLICATE
110
APERTURE Personally I try to make all my photographies as good as

possible directly from the camera and this includes :
- perspective & attention to details
- colour style ( monochrome or neutral)
In this way i will need minimum editing inside application
and if possible no manipulations.
After arranging photos in keynote in final view I import
the picture in Aperture as JPEG or TIFF file in full HD
resolution (1920/1080) and start editing.
Only after this specific protocol I export pictures out
from Aperture and upload the photos on Facebook making
sure that is checked “upload in high quality” on upload
page. Also this pictures can be sent for print or to be used
for websites and marketing.
Most common used filters:

- SKIN SMOOTHING - this is applied on skin to smoothen it but it does’t destroy it’s texture,
- SHARPENING - is to be applied on lips, eyes, hair and jewellery to get a wet/shiny effect.
111
This is one of the favourite applications of the

photographers worldwide. With LightRoom you can easy
edit and organise your pictures, add great effects and
improve overall look of your pictures.
It is possible to use different filters that Photoshop
uses too like NIK collection filters. Also basic adjustments
like contrast, saturation, exposure, brightness, tint and
many other different filters.

One picture is more than 1000 words, than guess how much a video means. The future in promoting our
business and our work is in video but for this we need a special equipment and applications that can help us get
good and fast results when recording and editing.
We need follow focus system, sliders, special video VDSLR lenses and continuos light systems unlike in
photography where we mainly use flash lights.
