 What happens during a digital smile design procedure?

Developed by a brazilian dentist named Christian Coachman, digital smile design uses veneers to enhance your tooth structure and looks. The best part about a digital smile design procedure is that you can predict how the surgery would turn out to be before it is even undertaken! Using advanced DSD equipment, we will be able to predict the look of your smile after the procedure and only after you are satisfactory with the results and give a go-ahead, we would perform the surgery!

The entire process of DSD simplified:

 1) On the initial visit, your dentist would take a preliminary analysis of your tooth, gums and gauge your needs and objectives from the procedure. The dentist would then undertake diagnostic tests to better understand the intrinsics of your oral health and the structure of your teeth. The diagnosis would be fairly comprehensive with X-rays and CAD/CAM scan taken of your teeth and a customized solution will be proposed to you keeping your needs in mind. Problems like improper jaw alignment and bite would be detected if present and the results are then presented to you.

2) The next step would be to create the tailor made smile in the latest Digital Smile Design equipment and share it with you to get your feedback and incorporate it into the smile. Your dentist would discuss with you the details of the treatment and explain to you the significance of the design chosen.

3) The third step would be to create a mold in a laboratory and incorporate the aesthetic design physically in your mouth by inserting the mold. Whilst in some cases, the patients might prefer to consult with their family on the mold design, others would prefer to go ahead with the insertion if they like the design. Dentists take great care to ensure that the entire process is accurate and without any errors.

4) The last and the final step would be to fit the dental veneers back into your mouth to complete the treatment. The dental veneers are inserted carefully to ensure that they bond well and fit firmly with the teeth.

It is important to remember that dentists from diverse backgrounds with a huge experience would work with you in helping you perfect your smile. With technology advancing to a great degree, the latest equipment will guarantee you of an accurate procedure with a smile that will lighten up the people around you.
