What is digital smile design?
See, feel, and approve your new smile before any tooth is touched.
Digital Smile Design (DSD) is a fully digital workflow that previews your new smile on screen and in your mouth — before any treatment begins. It combines high-resolution photography, intraoral scanning, video recording of your speech and smile, and specialised software to design a smile that suits your face.
At The Tooth Story, DSD is used as the planning stage for veneers, smile design and full mouth rehabilitation. The 3D mockup is then 3D-printed and placed temporarily in your mouth — so you can see, photograph, and even speak with your new smile before you commit.
In one sentence
Digital Smile Design is a fully digital planning process that lets you preview, test and approve your new smile in your mouth — before any permanent treatment.
Why choose digital smile design
6 reasons patients choose digital smile design at The Tooth Story.
Care that is honest, painless wherever possible, and built around your time.
- 01
See before you commit
A high-resolution screen mockup combines your face with planned tooth shapes — make changes freely before bonding.
- 02
Predictable outcomes
Because the final result is designed and approved first, surprises at the bonding stage are virtually eliminated.
- 03
Fully customisable
Change tooth shape, length, shade, gum line — try many combinations until the smile feels right for you.
- 04
Builds confidence
Seeing the result in advance removes anxiety — most patients describe DSD as the most reassuring part of cosmetic dentistry.
- 05
Faster lab work
A digitally designed and approved case lets the master ceramist work more efficiently. Faster turnaround.
- 06
Fewer trial appointments
The 3D mockup serves as a try-in. Many patients skip multiple chair adjustments because the design is pre-approved.

A 3D-printed mockup is placed temporarily over your existing teeth. You see, feel, photograph and even speak with your new smile.

Very accurate. Modern DSD software combined with intraoral scanning and 3D printing produces a final result that closely matches the approved on-screen and physical mockup. Small refinements during bonding are normal — major changes from the approved design are rare.
Smile Design is the overall treatment plan — the combination of veneers, whitening, contouring etc. Digital Smile Design (DSD) is the digital planning method used within smile design to preview the result before treatment. DSD is an enhancement to smile design, not a replacement.

Yes. We share the on-screen mockup, before/after simulations and 3D model with you so you can review them on your phone, share with family, and request changes between visits.
This is discussed at the consultation at The Tooth Story, 669, Sector 37, Faridabad. Details that are not published on this website are not stated here.
No. DSD is used for any cosmetic plan involving multiple visible teeth — veneers, laminates, crowns, smile design, and full mouth rehabilitation. It is most impactful when 4 or more teeth are being changed at once.
DSD predicts shape, length, position, and shade very accurately. What it cannot fully predict is how your gums will adapt around new restorations and minor occlusal fine-tuning — both of which are addressed with small chairside adjustments at the bonding visit.
