See Your New Smile Before You Begin: Digital Smile Design
A technology-led planning method that designs your smile around your face using digital scans, photos and video. You preview and approve the shape, length and colour of your new teeth — and even try a mock-up in your mouth — before any treatment starts.
Designing Your Smile, Digitally
Digital Smile Design (DSD) is a modern planning protocol, not a treatment in itself. Using digital photographs, video and 3D intra-oral scans, your dentist analyses how your teeth relate to your lips, gums and overall face — then designs a new smile in software, tailored to your features.
The biggest advantage is predictability: you see a digital simulation of your future smile, and often a physical mock-up trial placed over your teeth, before any permanent work begins. This turns "I hope I'll like it" into "I've already seen and approved it." DSD guides treatments like veneers, crowns and a Hollywood smile, making the result more precise and natural.
- Anyone planning veneers, crowns or a full smile makeover
- Patients who want to see the result before committing
- Those wanting a smile in harmony with their face, not a generic look
- International patients who want to plan remotely before travelling
The Digital Smile Design Process
A precise, predictable path from data capture to an approved smile.
Data Capture
High-resolution photos, video and a 3D intra-oral scan record your teeth, gums, lips and facial proportions.
Step 1Digital Analysis
Your smile is analysed in software — tooth shape, length, symmetry and the gum line — all referenced to your face.
Step 2Design & Mock-Up
A new smile is designed and shown as a simulation. A physical mock-up can be placed over your teeth to trial the look.
Step 3Approve & Treat
Once you approve the design, it becomes the precise blueprint your veneers or crowns are crafted from.
Step 4Predictable, Precise, Personal
DSD removes the guesswork from cosmetic dentistry. You're involved in designing your own smile and see the result in advance — for a more confident decision and a more natural outcome.
See It Before You Commit
Preview a simulation of your future smile and approve it before any irreversible treatment begins.
Face-Driven Design
Your smile is designed in harmony with your lips, gums and facial features — never a one-size-fits-all template.
Try-In Mock-Up
A physical trial smile can be placed over your teeth, so you experience the look and feel before deciding.
Predictable Results
The approved design becomes a precise blueprint, so the final result closely matches what you saw and agreed.

Common Questions About Smile Design
The questions asked most often before treatment.
It's a planning method, not a treatment in itself. DSD designs and previews your future smile, then guides the actual treatments — such as veneers, crowns or a Hollywood smile — that bring the design to life. Think of it as the architectural blueprint before the building work.
Yes — that's the whole point. You see a digital simulation of your designed smile, and in many cases a physical mock-up can be placed over your teeth so you can see and feel the look in your own mouth before any permanent work is done.
A mock-up is a temporary, removable trial of the designed smile, placed over your existing teeth without altering them. It lets you preview the shape and proportions in real life, share it with family, and request changes — all before committing to the final veneers or crowns.
DSD is used to plan most cosmetic treatments — porcelain and composite veneers, zirconium and all-ceramic crowns, and full Hollywood smile makeovers. It can also help plan gum aesthetics and orthodontic cases, ensuring everything works together with your face.
To a degree, yes. We can begin planning from photos and information you send, giving you an early idea and quote. The full design with 3D scanning and a mock-up is finalised at your first appointment, so your treatment time in Antalya is used efficiently.
Because the approved design becomes the precise blueprint for crafting your veneers or crowns, the final result closely matches what you previewed and agreed. Combined with an experienced clinical eye, this makes the outcome far more predictable than traditional, undesigned treatment.
Smile design is usually part of your overall cosmetic treatment plan rather than a separate large cost. After your consultation we explain clearly how it fits into your plan and provide a transparent written quote. There are no hidden fees.
