We believe your smile should be as unique as you are - that's why we offer Digital Smile Design (DSD), a process that lets you visualise and shape your ideal smile before treatment even begins.

Using digital photography, videography, and impressions, we build a customised blueprint of your smile matched to your facial structure and preferences. The initial consultation takes under an hour and involves no pain, no drilling, and no injections - patients often say it feels more like a photoshoot than a dental appointment.

The process happens in five steps: multi-angle digital photography and videography of your face, teeth, and smile; 2D and 3D smile planning using specialist software to adjust tooth shape, size, and colour; a handcrafted 3D wax model for precise refinement; a temporary, removable smile prototype so you can preview and evaluate the design in person; and finally, delivery of your approved, custom-designed smile.

Digital Smile Design can be used to plan almost any cosmetic or restorative treatment - veneers, crowns, bridges, implants, dentures, or orthodontics - and is ideal for addressing stains, gaps, misalignment, missing teeth, chips, cracks, a gummy smile, or a narrow smile. Cost depends on the treatment plan agreed during your consultation, which is presented upfront before you commit to anything.
