What is Digital Smile Design?

Digital Smile Design (DSD) is a method that uses digital technologies to plan personalized aesthetic dental treatments. It ensures harmony between teeth, gums, lips, and the face by allowing patients and dentists to visualize and plan the desired results using mobile applications before any physical procedures are performed.

During the first session, necessary records are taken from the patient. Then, using digital software, a new smile design is created based on the expectations of both the patient and the dentist. At this stage, any desired changes can be made to the design to align with the patient’s and dentist’s preferences.

What are the Advantages of Digital Smile Design?

• The most significant advantage is that it allows patients to see the potential outcome of their treatment without undergoing any invasive procedures, apart from photographs and digital measurements.
• Making changes to the design is simple and can be done according to the patient’s preferences.
• Digital Smile Design minimizes the number of appointments needed with the dentist.

Preparation for Digital Smile Design

1. Digital Imaging:
   The patient’s teeth are scanned using intraoral scanners. These images are analyzed for both functionality and aesthetics, allowing the dentist to create a treatment plan tailored to the patient’s condition.
2. Comprehensive Evaluation:
   • The design considers the patient’s expectations and needs, age, facial symmetry (golden ratio), facial analysis, gum condition, and gum level.
   • These criteria are used to plan the desired aesthetic restorations effectively.
3. Detailed Plan Presentation:
   • The dentist explains the treatment plan, including material choices, recommended treatment duration, techniques to be used, costs, and expected outcomes.
