Digital Smile Design
Digital Smile Design is one of the modern tools that dentists use to predict the final results of a cosmetic dentistry procedure and to make sure that the final results meet the expectations of the patients.
What is a Digital Smile Design?
It is a technique that dentists started using lately to help patients visualize their smiles before having the dental treatment. The tool helps dentists create the perfect smile according to the patient’s wishes, and facial proportions.
Patients can ask for modifications to their virtual smile before the treatment starts which guarantees their satisfaction.
Digital smile design is performed using software that creates the final visualization for the smile using the right and correct input.
The Benefits of Digital Smile Design
- The main and most important benefit of this tool is the high level of communication between the patients and their dentists, which affects the final results and patients’ satisfaction positively.
- Digital smile design reduces the element of surprise as patients know exactly what to expect when the treatment is done.
- Granting patients natural smiles as well as oral health is the main purpose of cosmetic dental treatments, this tool helps them do just that.
- This tool also creates individual smiles that are suitable for each patient which sustains their individuality.
- Errors or mistakes are not an option as the outcome of the smile is predicted precisely by this tool.
- This state-of-the-art tool is helpful in the cases of patients who decide to go through dental treatments, especially smile makeovers in foreign countries like Turkey. As they will know exactly what the final results will look like before even leaving their countries.
How Digital Smile Design is done?
Depending on the type of software the steps of digital smile designs happen according to the following steps:
- Using a 3D scanner a digital dental impression of the teeth is taken.
- Photographs of the patients’ faces and some videos of them smiling talking, laughing, and eating are acquired.
- All this data is uploaded to the software which in turn produces a video of the predicted perfect smile for the patient.
At this point, dentists usually show some before and after results for cases similar to the patient’s case and take their opinion and final approval before carrying on the actual treatment.
The final visualization of the smile, the shape, and color of teeth as well as the patient’s expectations are sent to the lap to create the perfect match to the patient’s expectation.
