Description

Maryam Saeed and colleagues compare smile tastes across groups in a 2026 study. The golden proportion is a tooth width ratio used in smile design. Smile photos were altered across a range from 52 to 77 percent, and 128 patients and clinicians rated them on a five-point scale.

Patients accepted the widest range, the full 52 to 77 percent. Orthodontists accepted the narrowest, 62 to 67 percent, while restorative dentists fell between. Gender and experience rarely shaped ratings. The authors treat the ratio as a range, not a fixed value, and urge joint planning between dental specialties.
