In this article, we will explore in depth its benefits, costs, differences with other treatments, and the best software available.
What is digital smile design?
This is a technique that combines photography, intraoral scanning and specialized software to digitally design a smile adapted to the patient's facial aesthetics. This process allows:
Visualize the final result before treatment
Customize the shape, color and size of the teeth
Make adjustments before placing veneers or implants
Optimize communication between dentist and patient
How is it done?
The process follows these steps:
Photographs and 3D scanning : Images are taken of the patient's face and teeth.
Facial and dental analysis : Proportions, alignment and aesthetic harmony are studied.
Use of specialized software : Programs such as DSD Ð Digital Smile Design are used.
Simulation and approval : A 3D model is presented to the patient.
Manufacturing and placement : Veneers, crowns or resins are applied according to the approved design.
Software for digital smile design
There are currently several advanced tools, some of them free or with trial versions.
- Digital Smile Design DSD
- Romexis Smile Design Planmeca
- Smile Creator Exocad
- 3Shape Smile Design
These programs allow you to create realistic simulations and optimize every detail before treatment.

Smile Design with Resin vs. Veneers: What's the Difference?
Many people confuse digital design with final treatment. However, it is important to differentiate:
Dental veneers : These are sheets of porcelain or resin that adhere to the teeth to improve their aesthetics.
Smile design with resin : Technique using composite resin directly on the teeth.
Digital smile design : This is the prior planning process to visualize how the smile will look before performing any treatment.
What are the disadvantages of digital smile design?
Despite its many benefits, it has some limitations:
It is not a treatment in itself , but rather a planning phase.
It depends on the dentist's skill to execute the design correctly.
It may have an additional cost , although this is often discounted if the treatment is carried out.
What is the price of a digital smile design?
The price varies depending on the clinic and the technology used. In Spain, the approximate costs are between Û150 Ð Û500 (usually discounted in the final treatment price).
These prices depend on the design software used , the complexity of the case, the quality of the materials used and the dental clinic.
