Enamel Defect Repair: see it on your own smile first
Smooth and blend pitted, grooved or patchy developmental enamel.
Enamel hypoplasia means the enamel formed thinner or less evenly than usual, leaving pits, grooves or patchy, opaque areas. It's something you're born with or acquire while teeth are developing — not something you caused.
Treatment depends on how much surface is affected: small areas respond to microabrasion and resin infiltration, larger ones to bonding or veneers that restore a uniform surface. Affected enamel can also be more cavity-prone, so there's often a health reason to treat it too.
What your Smyly™ preview shows
Smyly™ shows your smile with the affected areas evened out — an improved blend, and a fully uniform surface — while keeping the result looking like real enamel rather than a coat of paint.
You'll see 2 versions side by side: Improved, Fully Blended .

The honest limits of this preview
Cosmetic visualisation only. A preview can't see bone, bite, gum health or anything beneath the surface — only a clinical exam can. Treat it as a conversation starter for your dentist, never as a promised result.
Worth asking your dentist
- How much of my enamel is affected, and is it at higher decay risk?
- Can my patches be infiltrated/polished out, or do they need covering?
- Will treated areas match the rest of the tooth as it ages?
