What is Digital Smile Design?
Worried about ending up with an unnatural-looking smile after a makeover? We get it, and we're not fans of fake smiles either! That's why we use 3D Facial Design in our smile makeovers. This process ensures your new smile is custom-designed to complement your unique facial features, resulting in a naturally beautiful look. Our five Smile Makeover Standards guarantee a result that's not just stunning, but also perfectly suited to you. At PCCD, we create smiles that enhance your natural beauty and boost your confidence – no cookie-cutter approach here!

Your Face
We use 3D facial software to plan your new smile to be in balance with your face’s vertical midline and horizontal plane.
Your Lips
We analyze how your lips move when you talk, smile and laugh so that the curve of the smile and the curve of the lip are in harmony at all times.
Your Teeth
We plan the shape, size, arrangement and color of your teeth to look naturally beautiful, not fake. We also add those little ‘imperfections’ that make teeth look real.
Your Gums
We make adjustments depending on how much or how little the gums show when you smile, talk and laugh.
Smile Test Drive
You have the option to "test drive" your new smile using the 3D prototype, giving you a preview of your transformation.
The Smile Design Process
Comprehensive Digital Capture
We begin by taking a series of high-resolution digital photographs, dynamic video recordings, and a precise 3D scan of your mouth. This comprehensive approach ensures we capture every nuance of your smile and facial features.
Personalized Smile Design
Using advanced software, we meticulously craft an ideal smile design tailored specifically to your facial structure and aesthetic goals. This digital blueprint serves as the foundation for your transformation.
3D Prototype Creation
We bring your new smile to life by 3D printing a prototype based on the digital design. This tangible model allows us to refine and perfect every detail of your future smile.
Smile Test Drive
You have the option to "test drive" your new smile using the 3D prototype, giving you a preview of your transformation. Alternatively, we can use this model to further refine the design, ensuring it meets your expectations. By carefully considering these four steps and how they work together, we create smiles with unique balance and harmony. When you choose a smile makeover backed by our Smile Makeover Standards, you're guaranteed a confident, natural-looking new smile that's 100% customized for you!
