Case Planning & Smile Redesign

Digital Smile Design (DSD) uses advanced digital technology to integrate patient’s dental and facial proportions with high-quality photographs, creating a realistic mock-up of the final result. This approach enhances diagnostic accuracy, communication, and treatment predictability by thoroughly evaluating both facial and dental characteristics. Virtual DSD plans can be transferred to a physical model using silicone stents or transparent matrices, allowing trial placement in the patient’s mouth. This step provides valuable feedback, ensuring precise, predictable, and aesthetically exceptional outcomes.

Diagnostic Wax-Up is a predictive tool designed to visually and accurately represent the intended outcome of a proposed treatment. By creating a three-dimensional wax model of the planned restorations, dentists can present patients with a realistic preview of the final result. This process is an invaluable step in treatment planning, enhancing communication between the dentist, dental lab, and patient, while ensuring alignment on aesthetics and function before treatment begins.
