Luckily, modern dentistry offers methods to change that — with accurate predictions of treatment outcomes. This is where Smile Design, or Digital Smile Design (DSD), comes into play. It enables close collaboration between dentist and patient to achieve precisely planned results.
What is Smile Design?
Smile Design is based on digital visualization of treatment outcomes. It gives the patient active involvement in planning their future appearance. It also ensures that teeth alignment matches facial anatomy and individual expectations perfectly. By doing so, it has become an integral part of aesthetic dental treatments
At our office, DSD precedes procedures like porcelain veneers, Invisalign orthodontics, or gum‑height corrections. It begins with a series of facial photos and videos, along with intraoral images. Esthetic Dental Studio offers a high‑end photo studio for this purpose.
The consultation includes a detailed discussion of the patient’s goals. We then assess the relationships between teeth, lips, and facial features to tailor the ideal solution. The design is presented as a digital image, and the patient can request any modifications.
Next, we present a customized treatment plan. A crucial step is sending the design to a dental lab where a smile model is created. The patient can try it on to see if it matches expectations. After confirming the design, we set treatment steps and schedules.
How does the process work?
- On the first visit, we conduct a full oral examination and address any issues immediately.
- The dentist captures facial and intraoral photos to generate a 3D visualization displayed on a computer screen.
- The design considers individual facial characteristics — facial expressions, proportions, and features.
- DSD allows revisions before the final restoration is made, ensuring complete satisfaction.
What factors are considered?
We evaluate tooth length, shape, proportions, and tilt in harmony with your facial structure and unique beauty. The smile frame (lips), facial symmetry axis, facial shape, proportions, even the pupillary plane — all are harmonized with the new smile. A clear, visual treatment plan is essential.
Final result before treatment
Many patients hesitate before a smile makeover because they worry about naturalness or shade intensity. With DSD, these aspects are settled visually at the planning stage. You see the final smile before treatment begins — ensuring confidence and eliminating uncertainty.
Digital Smile Design empowers patients to undergo a full smile transformation with control and clarity.
Why choose Smile Design?
Choosing Smile Design ensures your treatment follows your expectations — crucial considering the investment of time, money, and effort involved. You’ll have interdisciplinary expert support and predictable results.
