Digital Scanning and Smile Design
Your teeth and mouth are the most noticeable parts of your face, and they are constantly on display when you smile and talk to those around you. If you’re unsatisfied with the way your teeth look, you can alter your appearance without the commitment just yet.
Digital Scanning and Smile Design (DSD) is a revolutionary and modern software tool that provides a digitally enhanced preview of your teeth. Before any irreversible dental treatment is carried out, you can envision the final product and see what your appearance would look like if you were to proceed with veneers, Invisalign or any other form of cosmetic dentistry. Would you like to try it? Book an appointment with our cosmetic dentist in Ivanhoe today.
How does Digital Smile Design work?
- In our preliminary consultation, we sit with you to discuss the process in great detail so that you have a realistic idea of what to expect.
- Then, we take high quality photographs and short videos of your teeth from all angles, while you’re speaking and smiling
- Through the smile design simulation, we change the shape of your teeth, the lining of your gums and correct any displaced teeth. Possible outcomes are represented in 3D form so you can see the desired aesthetic that will compliment your facial structure.
- You review the 3D mock-up representations, and you can approve or ask for revisions. Only when you have approved the design do we begin the final step: the cosmetic procedure.
