The “Beauty” is an abstract notion that is defined as the characteristic of a thing, which through a sensory experience (perception), provides a sensation of pleasure or a feeling of satisfaction. In this sense, beauty comes from qualities such as form, visual appearance, movement, and sound. Along this line and emphasizing the visual aspect, Tomás de Aquino defines beauty as what pleases the eye (quae visa placet).
The perception of beauty often involves the interpretation of some entity that is in balance and in harmony with nature, and can lead to feelings of attraction and emotional well-being. Because it constitutes a subjective experience, it is often said that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”, and of course, it is valued in different ways by people.
However, when someone is not satisfied with his smile, it is difficult for him to feel confident. Taking pictures, talking to other people and meeting new people, can seem like real challenges for those who are used to hiding their teeth. With digital smile design (DSD), they can regain their confidence and enjoy a different life experience.
But definitely, understanding the benefits of this treatment protocol, can help you determine if it is a good fit for you.
Why Is a Digital Smile Design Favorable?
The DSD is a multi-purpose dental treatment protocol that offers a number of advantages over other therapeutic options. The procedure represents a very advanced way to diagnose and treat problems that affect the structural and aesthetic components of the mouth and jaw.
Also, it allows better communication between team members who provide professional care, greatly reducing discrepancies and disagreements between Specialists and laboratory Technicians. The visual representation of what the new smile is intended to be, is an exceptional tool to approve or reject the proposed changes, and seek the full satisfaction of the patient.
Another reason people love the DSD protocol, is the predictability of the entire process. By using digital technology, it is easier to predict accurate results, stick to the treatment plan, and avoid surprises at the end of it. Throughout the DSD process, photos and videos are taken to monitor work progress, improving interaction and building trust between patients and professionals.
The aesthetic and restorative treatments are always executed based on the wishes and needs of the patient, which makes the results highly satisfactory.
Why Should a Person Aspire to this Treatment Protocol?
The fact of simply solving the functional problems with the teeth, gums and jaws; is not enough for most patients. People want to show off great smiles that help them feel confident and attractive. The teeth and the smile are important in any aspect of life, since they are usually the letter of introduction of the individual to the world, and the main focus of attention during any conversation or social interaction.
Additionally, each patient is unique and has their own set of wants and needs regarding dental care. The application of a single treatment plan for all, such as a kitchen recipe, will not provide the same results in some as in others. With DSD, we do not limit ourselves to a single course of treatment, but we work based on the individuality and particular characteristics of each person.
Among the 5 most important advantages of digital smile design we find:
1- Provides Whiter, Healthier and More Beautiful Teeth
With the different cosmetic dental procedures, it is perfectly possible to completely change the shape, size, color and texture of the teeth. Either with a simple teeth whitening, or with the preparation of ceramic restorations, this protocol allows us to achieve greater harmony in the appearance of the teeth and the projection of the smile.
2- Rejuvenate the Appearance
A recent study by the University of Amsterdam scientifically demonstrated that, when a person smiles candidly, he appears younger. So the smile design is synonymous with youth and the perfect complement to other regenerative medicine and plastic surgery treatments.
3- Increases Physical Attractiveness and Sex Appeal
One of the main advantages of this protocol is that it makes people more attractive. Neuroesthetics has proven that having symmetrical teeth, that is, a harmonic dentition; guarantees, in general, 55% more physical attraction on the opposite sex.
4- Raise Self-Esteem
It helps us feel much better about ourselves, which inevitably influences our daily behavior. Therefore, the digital smile design could be the gateway to new social, sentimental and work opportunities.
5- Improves Health and Quality of Life
Looking and feeling better is a great stimulus for people to worry more about their physical condition and general health, take care of their habits, their diet and go to the Doctor more regularly. In the same way, the benefits of good Cosmetic Dentistry almost always include a large dose of optimism and happiness; very useful to feel full, happy, be positive and enjoy life.
Is Digital Smile Design Right for You?
One of the best aspects of DSD is the fact that almost any patient is a good candidate for the treatment protocol. The concept is based on the analysis of your dental and facial proportions to plan the intervention, simulate it graphically and assess its final impact; before executing it.
This is done through the use of high-quality digital photos and videos, allowing your staff to better understand and study the relationship between your lips, teeth, and gums. From there, you will become part of the team and will be 100% involved in the planning and development phases.
If you have always wanted to change or improve something in your smile, this is the right time to proclaim your wishes, needs and preferences. You will be in command, working as a team with the Specialists to achieve the best possible result.
So if you care about aesthetics, your physical appearance and the way you are perceived by society; digital smile design is for you.
According to the conditions of the case, the clinical execution of the design could be very conservative, from a simple recontouring and teeth whitening, to more invasive interventions such as orthodontics, gum surgery, preparation of veneers, total ceramic crowns, and even; maxillofacial surgery. It will all depend on the initial details and defects, and of course, on your personal expectations.
“Anyone Who Wishes to Change the Shape, Size and Color of His/Her Teeth; Is a Good Candidate for a Digital Smile Design”.
