Weekend Course: Smile Designing

The Art & Science of Smile Designing

A beautiful smile is more than straight, white teeth. It’s about creating balance, harmony and confidence while keeping every smile natural and unique. With dentistry moving towards digital workflows and advanced aesthetic planning, smile designing has become an essential skill in modern practice. This weekend course explores the art, science and digital approach to designing better smiles, from understanding facial aesthetics to planning personalised outcomes.

Because every smile is different and every smile deserves a thoughtful design.

A. Conservative Approach

Focuses on correcting malaligned teeth and improving the smile while preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible.

B. Non-Conservative Approach

Involves more extensive tooth preparation or restorative/surgical work, used for cases requiring greater correction.

Laminates Veneer (Ceramic) – ceramic veneers requiring tooth preparation
Thinniers – thin ceramic veneer restorations
All Ceramic CAD/CAM Crowns – digitally designed and milled full-coverage crowns
Extraction & Implant Planning – for cases requiring tooth removal and implant-based restoration

This is Dr.Hamda from Somalia, I came across a recommendation for Dr.Bhutani courses in a post in Quora Digest. I asked few friends in India and I got positive feedback as well. It's an interesting course with an excellent instructors. Dr.Deepak Bhutani worked hard with me specially to give me the confidence to work. I can say I was lucky enough to have such care and help. The clinic is impressive with advanced equipments, they use OPG, CBCT scan, digital scanner and many others. We went through different implant systems and we saw many cases. The thing I liked the most in this course was the passion of Dr.Deepak for teaching us and how he was patient with us. There are many others courses going on in Dr.Bhutani clinic and I do recommend them also, if possible I would've loved to enroll in all these other courses and spend more time in Delhi.

Overall the course was excellent and has added to my skills and knowledge which in turn has boosted my confidence in placing implants. It was mainly clinically driven with multiple case planning and hands-on experience on jaw models and on patients. It was an amazing opportunity for me as I placed 2 implants independently on a patient under the guidance and supervision of Dr Vimanyu Kataria. The entire crew including Dr Deepak Bhutani, Dr Vimanyu Kataria and Lt. Col Dr B. R. Chetal Bhutani shared a lot of clinical tips and experiences which was very useful. I am also very thankful to the entire dental auxillary staff who were very helpful and supportive throughout the course. I highly recommend attending this course for all level of implant practitioner.

Recently completed the Prosthodontic Dental Course with Dr Bhutan . This course helped me built confidence in my work and taught me a higher level of dental work environment. Dr Deepak Bhutani and Dr Chetal are great mentors and they make sure that you not only learn but you also improve. It is an all practical course but they always make time to clarify any theoretical doubts. Each student got personal attention while treating their patients which helped rectify common mistakes and complete the task at hand with finesse .They were very generous in sharing their tips on clinical administration and how to tackle both major and minor procedures. The staff members were also very friendly . I had a great time learning under them. Would encourage other dentists who want to learn more and improve their work.

I am licensed US dentist and have been out of dental practice for some time now. It was a great learning experience here as there is a good influx of patients. I got the opportunity to practice basic procedures like scaling to advanced procedures such as crown preparation and RCTs (both anterior and posterior). Moreover, also for someone aspiring to learn complete denture and RPDs this is a great place to learn with Dr Chetal’s experience. Dr Pratima and Dr Deepak are amazing mentors and they really take the the time and effort to teach. I would recommend this course to both beginner and experienced dentists trying to fill in the gaps in their clinical experience.

I am very thankful to Dr. Deepak sir and Dr.Pratima mam and all the mentors who had given me this wonderful experience and confidence & I would recommend facial aesthetics to all my closest friends

ProSmile Dental Clinic

Amazing 3 days facial aesthetic course with top academicians. Lectures and practical sessions were to the point and it gives me enough confidence to start facial aesthetics in my clinic back in Mauritius. Thank you to Dr Deepak Bhutani, Dr Prathima Bhutani and Dr Chetal along with all other doctors who shared with us their honest experiences and tips and tricks in facial aesthetics. I highly recommend everybody around the globe to please attend this course because our society nowadays gives a lot of importance about looks but also because i highly appreciated the honest approach and knowledge sharing for this course. As Dr Deepak Bhutani repeatedly said :"The Sky is the Limit" so let us start shooting for the stars of facial aesthetics.

It was a great experience learning under Dr. Deepak and Dr. Pratima, I gained a lot of knowledge from them about General Dentistry and Dental Implants .I took an Implant and General Dentistry course from the Dr. Bhutani Dental clinic .It was an honour to work under them and gather a bunch of knowledge and technicality in the field of dentistry. I gained a good confidence and better exposure. I got to learned many more cases apart from my course…. And the assistance you get from the rest of the staff is supportive…Also Dr.Chetal has helped me a lot theoretically and clinically….I would say Dr.Bhutani Dental Clinic is the best place to learn wether your experienced or fresher…

Having travelled 1000s of miles from UK to India for dental course, i visited several dental places for course but i have to say Dr Deepak Bhutani clinic is the only place where you will get genuine teaching from genuine people!! Dr Deepak is the master of specialised prosthodontics with many years of experiences and Dr Pratima Chetal is a very patient, calm and polite individual with many years of experties in specialized endodontics field.Whether you want learn prosthodontics, endodontics or combine, De Bhutani clinic is best place where you will learn to treat patients on your own confidently and on your own pace within very short period of time in very modern practice!!

A great platform to learn and hone your clinical skills in endodontics and prosthodontics. Dr chetal , a great teacher and gem of a person, makes you understand prosthodontics in a very simple and logical manner. Dr Pratima a lovely lady and teacher, with her serene attitude she has so much clinical knowledge to share. And dr Deepak too a great human being, teaches you minute details of clinical prosthodontics. Thankful to Dr Deepika, dr japjeet too, n wish them a great future. And special thanks to puja, Deepak, Akash and Ravi for all their cooperation. I wish Dr Bhutani’s clinic a great future ahead, continue to aspire and inspire...

Not many of us BDS freshers get the opportunity to work on patients straight after internship. But Dr.Bhutani's clinical course on endodontics and prosthodontics gave me the opportunity to work on patients with the latest technology. It is not about learning on dummies but on patients which gives us the real essence of being a dentist. It was an honor to be guided by Lt.Col.Dr.B.R.Chetal who not only taught me about prosthodontics but every field of dentistry too and also kept advising about how to live a happy healthy life. The environment there was really friendly and warming. A must course for fresher's to enhance their skills.
